based off of articles.
Now, think about how these two are different?
What is the purpose or content of each?
The purpose of ny times is to inform people of the current news happening
around the world in all fields. While people focuses primarily on celebrity news
and their actions.
Who is target audience? What does genre assume or expect about its
audience? How do you know?
The general public, the nytimes is probably targeted more towards adults.
People is targeted more towards, females and teenagers. They assume the
people are interested in the articles they are publishing and that they have
general background knowledge of what to expect from the sources and the
types of things that will be said. I know because People goes more towards
and op-ed side as there are a lot of opinion incorporation and rumour based
information on people and the people regularly reading it will probably expect
this.
How is the information or message being conveyed differently? Be specific as
to the techniques used.
In people, it is more of a excited and overreaction type of message and
nytimes it kind of blandly saying these are all the things going on and these
are the facts about them.
