NEWS/EXAM Q8

The Observer home page shows lots of different uses of media language and techniques. On the main page there is a bar which bring lots of different types of news into a section of the most relevant/newest. In the Observer their are articles that are humorous such as cartoons and funny headlines. they also include puzzles, crosswords and some small games. They also have some reviews talking about how good their articles are and how good their newspapers are.

On the front page the main headlines and the pictures have very vibrant colors in them so they stand out. These images have a wide range of different and bright colors which are very eye catching and make people want to read it. We also get to know what the article is about as it shows a sneak peak of what is going to happen in it.


All of these are examples of different types of media language and techniques on the Observer home page.

    You have not worked from the Observer home page (given on the post, with the blue and pink on it) and I think that you perhaps did not really understand that you needed to analyse actual examples from the online extract given. For instance, can you pick out examples of hyperbolic, emotive or sympathetic language? Use of metaphor? Concerns with gender politics or social diversity?
