Tabloid: The Sun
The Suns front cover uses an unexpectedness and unambiguous layout to attract the audience. The story next to the masthead is there to attract the attention of most readers; ideally aimed at the C2, D, E audience due to it being a gossip column about a reality show. The denotation of the image shown shows upset and disappointment but the connotation outlines the major shock and unexpectedness as the big 'favourites' in a widely popular show are voted off. The use of the pun "Out on his Aston" shows the more fun side of the paper compared to the political headliner below. The headline "CPS PROBE ON GREEN 'EXTREME PORN'" instantly captures a political higher class audience targeted towards A,B,C1. The big and bold title instantly draws the attention of the reader especially due to the fact there is very little writing with it that keeps the reader hooked and interested. The Suns left wing political view is shown through the way they use this story as the main headline. The Sun is a redtop tabloid newspaper due to the red block around the title, the denotation of the colour of the title is shown in black and white but the connotation is that it is a much more serious topic which includes a taboo subject.
Broadsheet: The daily telegraph
The broadsheet newspaper shows values of 'unexpectedness', 'elite persons' and 'negativity' to attract a more elite audience. This is evident due to the layout of the broadsheet including lots of writing in comparison to the tabloid indicating the target audience includes personnel of A, B and C1. The main focus of the broadsheet is Donald Trump who's known to be a 'elite personnel' with most of his actions making front pages. His importance will attract high class business readers due to his actions potentially effecting their work. The denotation of the image shows Donald Trump to be standing in front of a red and white stripped background with his wife yet the connotations show him to be standing in front of the 'American flag' whilst he puts on an army bomber in order to 'help' the US airforce. The subtle pun at the top "if the jacket fits" indicates broadsheets are not all serious as it attempts to attract a wider variety of readers. This is also done by the top banner of the broadsheet reading "Total Football" with the image interrupting 'the Daily Telegraph' highlighting how important advertisement is and the variety the broadsheet is trying to include in order to attempt to attract some C2, D and E readers. The Daily telegraph is a right wing political broadsheet therefore most of its stories and headlines tend to be political stories and hard news.
