to what extent do the elements of media language used in sources A and B convey different values, attitudes and beliefs about the world?


in your answer you must:
analyse the ways in which media language has been used in combination in sources A and B to convey values, attitudes and beliefs about the world
refer to relevant contexts and academic ideas and arguments in your analysis and draw judgements and conclusions in relation to the question.


















Both sources convey different approaches towards their headlines, this is due to their different values that they hold towards political ideas. The Daily Mail is a far right, nationalist news paper,  this means that they feel strongly towards upholding traditional British values and may strongly support Brexit, despite being a tabloid newspaper, so rarely discuss political matters in huge detail The Guardian are a little bit towards the left of centre, but are mainly centre when discussing political matters. This is evident as it is a broadsheet newspaper and they would discuss these matters often and try to stay neutral.


In source A, the headline is 'HANDS OFF OUR ELECTION'. This could show the power and intent of Theresa May in striking a deal for brexit. It is displayed in capital letters and is bold to show the importance and intent that the UK are trying to show during their stance on this matter. As the newspaper (the daily mail) support the brexit idea, being a right wing newspaper, they are trying to show that the UK are desperately trying to uphold these traditional values that are trying to be sabotaged and ruined by those involved with the EU. The size of the Headline that is at the bottom of the page stands out to the reader and grabs the attention of those who see it. This is important as the  reader will be shocked when they see this headline as they would also support the right wing views as they would usually read this newspaper. There is also a use of informal language with 'HANDS OFF', this shows that the newspaper is a tabloid.


In Source B, the headline for the Guardian is ' May declares war on Brussels'. This shows a sole effort to try and push through the battle of Brexit that May is trying to force on the country. We as an audience know that May is making an attempt to look strong and powerful as the PM of Britain but we also know that she is really struggling to do so. This could possibly be the reason that she is 'declares war on Brussels'. 'war' also has connotations of negativity, something that The Guardian are trying to emphasise in this article, as they wish to display Theresa May in a negative way as their beliefs don't align with those who wish to still leave the EU. This idea of 'War' is a use of hyperbole to try to manipulate the reader into a false sense of panic when thinking about the Brexit troubles.
