An angle of a news story is the perspective that the news provider takes on a certain event. Changing the angle can significantly alter the way a news story is reported.
For example, when the 2011 Riots were happening the news, especially BBC, reported this story against the teenagers but didnt include why they were doing such a thing which made the authority's look a lot better than they actually are as they didn't understand why they were doing it.
What is the difference between tabloid and broadsheet news coverage?
Difference between tabloid and broadsheet:
Tabloid: Less serious content, focusing instead on celebrities, sports and crime stories
Broadsheet: serious news; politics, economic, international news
What would be an example of a tabloid-style TV news programme?
ITV news as they have a less important sense to the programme as they include a large majority of humour and celebrity news for example when Kim Kardashian died her hair to blonde they had a discussion about it.
What would be an example of a broadsheet-style TV news programme?
Channel 4 news as they go into a lot of detail when it comes to important stories for example when the migrants drowned in the Mediterranean sea channel spent 14 minutes talking about it

STV (Scottish) coverage of the election story
Is this international, national, regional or local news? How can you tell?
This is an international story as it is abased on what Scotland are going to do (mainly) but also what the mp's of London are going to do regarding the election also
What angle does the report take on the story?
The news provider, STV (scottish) are in more favour with Scotland's party and talk more about what they are going to do with the election and what they have to offer which is very biased especially considering that their TV news provider is Scottish therefore it doesn't give a fair coverage of all the different parties. However toward the end the did have a small mentioning about the conservative party and the labour party
Is this more tabloid or broadsheet-style coverage?
This is a broadsheet-style coverage as there ar politics and a high level of formality however there are also aspects of a tabloid-style coverage for example there were selfies taken in the bulletin, David Cameron on his way to Buckingham palace but most importantly there were animations giving the dates in which there was something important done and said.
What kind of audience would you expect to watch this type of TV news programme? Why?
I would expect a wide majority of Scottish audiences to watch this type of TV News programme, also, I would expect it to be family based due to the mixed language and animations making also younger viewers to understand also.
