We were assigned the activity on 27 September 2024. We were asked to collect sample newspapers and highlight different aspects of it. On 30 September 2024 we started the assignment by identifying the 5 Ws and 1 H in different articles. We were also asked to make a note of the different advertisements.
I analysed 4 different newspapers:
Newspaper A- It had 5 commercial and 3 government advertisements spread across 16 pages. The biggest advertisements were on the front 2 pages itself.
Newspaper B- It had 6 commercial and 2 government advertisements across 20 pages. It had an extra page dedicated solely for advertisements indicating its sponsors.
Newspaper C- It had 12 advertisements and 2 government advertisements. There was a section on page 5 dedicated to space for advertisements.
Newspaper D- It had the largest number of advertisements with 15 advertisements displayed on both the front page and an advertisement section on page 7.
Through this activity i was able to easily identify the 5 Ws and 1 H as well as the attributions. I was also able to differentiate between government and commercial advertisements and their role in the newspaper.
