World Book Day; Book Recommendations for teenagers
Date: 05/03/2020
- This story covers book recommendations from readers for teenagers, due to World Book Day. It is soft news.
- In relation to Galtung and Ruge's News Values theory, this relates with Balance since it is fairly positive and contrasts the abundance of political stories and COVID 19 stories in the media at the moment, It also links with Familiarity as World Book Day is celebrated nationally. There is also an aspect of Surveillance as there is information concerning a plethora of books that have an appeal to teenagers. It also links with Shirky's theory on End of Audience as the story takes readers recommendations and therefore has that 'many to many' audience structure which is a far more modern take to journalism and appeals to readers of the 'I'.
- The books recommended definitely reinforce the 'I's left wing ideologies, covering topics such as Racism, Police Brutality, Anti-War and empowerment.
