Daily mirror Trump post


This take on Trump's election from the Daily Mirror is delivered with a sense of great importance. We can tell this because it takes up the whole front cover (apart from a standalone at the top). This attracts the audience to buy this as they see that it is a very important piece of news. The image is very large and significantly larger than the text. This is to show the Mirror's left-wing opinion on the election of Donald Trump and how bad it is.


On the other side (or wing), the Daily Mail present Trump's election a lot more positively with a photo of him looking victorious. Similarly, the article takes up the whole page and is delivered with a sense of importance. The word 'Trumpquake' is in bold letters across the front, to not only add a sense of humour to it considering the US just elected DONALD TRUMP as president, but to show the significance of how big he is to World politics.
