The guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/uk
The layout of the guardian online is easy to read and also to find out information more easily than on a printed edition. The website has numerous categories (which includes: UK, Politics, World news, sport and many more).
Differences:
- The printed copy has one main headline with one picture, which is used to draw the readers attention to the story.
- The newspaper print is quite small and uses a lot of space, whereas the online version is more spaced out, and has a reasonable size text.
- The online edition can be updated when there is a new story, where as for the printed edition it is not that east to do.
- In each of the categories on the online paper there are many stories to do with it, whereas in the printed edition there may not be as many stories because of the lack of room available.
- The online copy includes the weather, where as the printed copy doesn't. This is because the weather may change.
The daily mail
The layout of 'The Daily mail' is arranged in a way that is easy to read, and also it has easy access to information. The main focus is on the 'BREAKING NEWS' stories, however there are also many categories that give stories on different things (e.g. U.S, Sport,Science, Money, etc).
Differences:
- The headlines are in big print on the printed copy, where as the headlines on the daily mail website are a reasonable size and have a different colour (Blue).
- There is only usually 1 or 2 photos on the front of the printed copy, however on the online copy, there are multiple photos, this is because the online edition has the capability and the room to have multiple photos on the same story.
- The online edition can be updated if there is anew story, where as the printed copy isn't as easy to change last minute.
- The online edition also includes the weather, where as the printed edition cannot have the weather on it, as it is too unpredictable to put on the printed edition of the paper.
