coloured tvs 

cold war


explain how broadsheet newspapers reflect the time and historic contexts in which they were published refer to the observer front page from 1960s that you have studied to surport your answer


broadsheets such as the observer reflect the time they were produced the observer from the 1960s reflects the racial inequality of the time the article featuring the mixed race  marriage highlights that this was uncommon in the 60s because its made the front page the quotes also acknowledge a race issue in society of the time of production this article reveals the issues in the 1960s are shown in newspapers




adress the question

an example from the observer

explain 


the observer from the 1960s reflects gender inequality and how women were objectified by men the ads of front a cover on the newspaper show women dressed in lingerie wich shows us that men used to look at women as if there objects and would use them '' jackie we are very happy '' lawyers urge divorce by consent cause during this time only the man can decide if the get a divorce   she is only seen as a object and dosent have a say int he relationship

exam format


do now


the copy would be a lot there would be lots of writing on the observer in the 60s

globalisation

broadsheet lots of writing formal

tabloid pictures less writing 


question 7 

one advantage of printing on paper is that not just anyone can post stuff and it gets regulated this type of news is favoured by elderly people more then the youth 

an advantage of publishing online is that its free and almost instant news this is favoured by younger people because most have mobile phones laptops etc


question 8 

analyse how this observer front page represents TWO social groups that are often under represented in the media 

the woman is represented as strong determined and is quite feminine in her appearance her hair make up and flower but her facial expressions aren't these juxtapose each other 

alan davies is under represented as a man by showing and telling his story and emotion the high angle long shot makes him look venerable  hes not looking at the camera he looks sad 


an under represented social group on the cover of the observer is alan davis and him talking about his family and secrets he isn't presented a man and dominant he is shown as venerable we can tell by the high angle shot and his body expressions that he is opening up about something and is preparing himself and his emotions 

question 9

the media language in the front of the observer makes it look like a broadsheet newspaper by

guided practice 

do now

conventions of a tabloid is pictures and not too much writing

conventions of a broadsheet is lots of writing formal and not many pictures 

the observer is a broadsheet news paper

mast head red and white 




















(LIAR) language industry audience representations

genre = types 

types in news = tabloid or broadsheet 

masthead

text to image ratio

image 

color 

genre convention of the observer media language 

mast head big bold black and white serif sophisticated 

image 1 main image mid shot rishi sunak and american politician  staged image press conference alliance between countrys this reinforces the historical friendship between the countrys since ww1 

expect politcal on the observer  racial equaltitly 


the media language used in the observer over reflects the genre conventions of a broadsheet newspaper 

by the text to image ratio broadsheet news papers there is moe text and writing then there are images and colour and usually the image on the cover is political and very formal another connotation is the image on this cover we can the uk prime minister rishi sunak and what looks like an american politcal leader or mp the photo looks staged and we can see the pair shaking hands showing an alliance wich isn't a new thing because we know England and america have had an alliance since ww1 this clearly establishes that the observer is a broadsheet and very formal and important and therefore it is evident that the observer dose use media language to reflect the generics conventions of a broadsheet newspaper to conclude we can see the media language used in the observer showing that its a broadsheet

q6 dirt 

 age 

q7 media is hard to regulate online because countrys can only regulate there own things not stuff from other countrys and also anyone can upload news so it would be almost impossible o keep it all regulated 

q8

 one way they follow the conventions of a broadsheet is the formalness of it and it being quite politcal about what they talk about

q9

judgement -introduction ans conclusion 

observer left wing liberal 

audience like food and culture  

the representations are typical for a observere broadsheet news paper   thats a political focus that challenge stereo types by the image the focus on terroism is an ongoing situation in the world today we need it stopped 

another representation is homelessness and this is serious we have men like Jamie Jenkins on the street when he could be fed and watered

HW

the audience of mojo magazines will be a younger audience because the magazines are colourful have music stars on the cover usually and this will attract people i said itl be a younger audience due to the colours on it and how it is factual but not formal 



do now

1 progressive surport equality 

2 left wing liberal 

you'd typically see in a broadsheet lots of formal writing a few images not many a skybox on the top of the paper

LIAR language industry audience representations





genre conventions - type- broadsheet

media language- image layout font text colour 

looks like a broadsheet 

not like a broadsheet the skybox the colours vibrant not formal 






















media contexts from the observer 

gender roles 

multiculturalism

lifestyles

democracy /liberal viewpoint

consumerism

celebrity culture 

intro


the media language in the observer newspaper reflects a broadsheet paper by the layout of the writing images and a broadsheet will only have a couple images not including the skybox another way it reflects being a broadsheet is the skybox the skybox is not formal but shows different lifestyles and hobbies you may enjoy or do

another example is the masthead it is big and bold it has a seriff font the mast head is black and white where as a tabloid is red and white suggesting formality this makes the observer a broadsheet and this is what you'd see in a broadsheet newspaper     

therefore it is clearly evident that the observer is broadsheet news paper by the skybox and masthead but also as the photo we know that the observer is a broadsheet and how there surrportive of equality and the main image is a black female celebrity showing equality and the contexts of a broadsheet 

in conclusion the observer reflects the contexts of a broadsheet newspaper 




Tuesday 30th april 2023

Q10 modern analysis 


the media language used in extract 3 shows the observers conventions of being a broadsheet some media language used is the masthead of the observer its bold and black and white where as a tabloid is red and white the layout is also different the observer has lots of formal writing compared to a tabloid. the context of news in a broadsheet is lot more serious in extract 3 its about asthma cg drugs for children 


1.wars

2.celebrity 

3.gender equality

4.racial equality

5.consumerism

6.attitudes to sexuality 

7.supporting positive mental health


1.

2. alan davies sharing his secrets 

3.women of main cover

4.gender equality

7.


the observer cover from today depicts the contextual issue of cultural contexts we can see on the front  cover a protests for black lives.  this shows contexts of today like the protests after George floyd died 2

 the observer is a broadsheet so it'll will only be topics like gender equality multiculturalism and an example of this is the black lives matter print it has famous boxer Anthony Joshua on the cover
