Newspaper Analysis
The three news items that i chose are the Prince Charles, train incident in Sweden and the zebra crossing story.
- The size of the story isn't huge at all as prince Charles broke his wrist, something that happens everywhere. However the size of the 40 people dead in the train crash is plenty big especially with the 270 being injured. Zebra crossing is definitely the smallest event here.
- Proximity is very close since its in England, something thats more popular in the UK than anywhere else. The train crash in Sweden isn't close at all while the zebra crossing is close being in the UK.
- Its negative since prince Charles broke his wrist but there are plenty other more negative stories out there. Train crash in Sweden is VERY negative, resulting in injuries and even death. The zebra crossing is negative but the least negative out of the other events.
- All stories a pretty simple especially for the younger audiences and the audience for the daily mail.
- The prince Charles and zebra crossing incident are the stories to get out first since they're in the UK however the train incident in Sweden will be hard to obtain since its all the way in Sweden.
- There is no currency as these stories just happened and wont be continuing on the news as we know exactly what happened.
- Not much continuity in the prince Charles incident however there could be in the train crash, showing how the train could've crashed as well as the zebra crossing story, showing that they will fix it or in the process of fixing it.
- The zebra crossing and the prince Charles incident are not rare at all while the train crash is somewhat rare, you don't see many train crashes ending in with death and injuries.
