How does 2 newspapers mediate a recent news event? 

     

On the left you have a newspaper from the guardian which is seen to be more on the left wing. It can be described as the positive side for example the newspaper gives the audience and overview if you don't vote to remain which is their persuasion. Their vote to remain is written in yellow which is a bright colour enabling it to stand out to the public. Looking closely at the newspaper they also have a heading which gives people an insight about the death of Jo Cox with a big picture of her which also can be seen as a way to grab people's attention.

 The Sun is on the right wing, which means that they show that they don't want to be dependent on anyone and that they would benefit and be better off as an independent country. This example the Sun shows, is them promoting that people should vote to quite the EU. This is achieved by them using a big and bold heading and also not forgetting the union jack in the word 'LEAVE', catching the publics eye. This is good for the Sun because usually those who have busy lives and in a hurry won't be looking for ages ready the small print, they would like to see something appealing which catches their attention which the Sunday achieves. Also another interesting point would be the fact that in comparison with the newspaper on the left, the right one has the whole first page on voting to leave the EU as for the left has half the page mediating that people should vote to remain.
