Whereas The Times has more text than images of the front page because their purpose is to inform. From the two images, you can see they the two newspapers have some similarities firstly includes the age range because both newspapers target audience is 65+. Also, they both have a masthead at the top where their logos are. They also both have a headline, yet The Suns headline is about someone clamming benefits and The Times headline is more serious about the attack on Aleppo. Both the newspapers have similarities yet they also have their differences which are clear to see. From the two images, you can tell that The Times has articles on the front so they get straight to the news whereas The Sun has little information on the front page to bait people to buy the paper.
I have chosen two articles one for The Sun and one from The Times. Both are these articles are talking about Hilary Clinton. As you can see The Times (on the right) has a picture which is related to the article and it has a large photo but also a lot of text supporting it. Whereas The Sun has a photo of someone with revelling clothes which does not seem to relate to the article. Also on the article for the Sun it has a humorous title “Rump v Trump” which is the part of sexualising the presidential elections. also with The Sun article the font is quite large and very limited compared to The Times which has small yet a lot of text. this is because the Times is more informative and more people read it to be informed whereas the Sun is more for people to be entertainned.
