Blog tasks: Daily Mirror case study

 Language


1) Write the definition of the following key language for newspaper front pages (you may want to add an example for each from our Daily Mirror CSP):

Masthead: the title block of the newspaper 
Pug: something to catch the readers eyes 
Splash Head: the lead story 
Slogan: sums up ethos of newspaper
Dateline: date newspaper was published 
Kicker: story at the top of paper to draw interest in content  
By-line: the writer who wrote the story 
Stand first: introducing paragraph usually in bold 

2) How much does a copy of the Daily Mirror cost? (Note: the current cost is different to the CSP edition - we recommend learning both).
the daily mirror costs £0.80p
3) What are the main stories on the CSP edition of the Daily Mirror (see above)? Make sure you learn the headline and what the stories are about.
they report on major news  ,but also include a lot of celebrities gossip, entertainment and sport 
4) Why is the choice of news stories and content on the Mirror CSP front page typical of a tabloid newspaper?
its a typical choice for a front cover of a tabloid because it contains celebrity gossip

5) What is the balance on the Daily Mirror front page between images, headlines and text?
the daily mirror uses a lot more uses very few big has a huge increase in size whilst having minimal text so the pictures can catch the readers attention 






Representations

1) What political party does the Daily Mirror support? Is there any evidence to support this in the CSP pages we have studied? The Daily Mirror represents the Conservative Party and its MPs as unprofessional and irresponsible as the picture they used to present Theresa Maya conservative party MP, as playful and ridiculous because of her "pose/posture" in the picture which was taken out of context.

2) How does the Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards represent ordinary British people?

They positively present the Labour Party by showing how they have a huge lead in the election compared to any other party.


3) How is climate change as an issue represented in the Daily Mirror? What evidence can you provide from the CSP pages to support this?They present Jeremy Corbyn as sectarianism as he is blamed for the loss of Jewish support whereas Theresa May is being praised fro her rise in the polls.

4) How are environmental protesters like Greta Thunberg represented in the Daily Mirror? Look at the inside pages to answer this.
They both positively and negatively present celebrities depending on the most recent and biggest impact  in there lives.
5) How are different countries and political leaders represented in the Daily Mirror? Does this reinforce or subvert the stereotypes we usually see in the media?
