Music Artists: Websites

http://www.khalidofficial.com/

Khalid is an American singer and songwriter signed to Right Hand Music Group and RCA Records. His music is in the Rhythm and Blues genre, and is best known for his songs ''Young, dumb and broke'' and ''Location''. His songs are aimed at a target audience of young adults and teen agers, but are enjoyed by many people from all different age groups.

Use of Images:
When you click onto his official website, the first thing you see is a pop-up promoting his newest album. The link gives an image of the album's front cover, and says ''available now'', followed by the logos of big music players, sellers and apps. The website background can be seen behind the image, but is slightly darker and isn't fully on show.

The actual website is simple but attractive, much like the singer's music. A large image of Khalid stood on a beach or dessert is the websites back ground image, and Khalid can be seen wearing an American flag over his shoulders, with his back towards the camera and a small part of the side of his face is seen. The sandy surroundings spread out way in front of him, and indicates to us as an audience that he is an individual, writing songs about him personally and focusing his music on him alone.

From trying to drown one neighbour, to tying someone else up to a tree, the inspector, and equally the audience, are quickly aware not everything is as perfect as it seems, and that the town's residents are actually violent and dangerous on a day to day basis. We see the end of the video showing the inspector being tricked into a large wooden cage-type figure, which has been similarly seen in the 1973 British horror film 'The Wicker Man'. Once locked inside its 'stomach', it is then set alight by the town's people, from which we assume the inspector is left to die, but are shown otherwise as he is see

News Story Coverage Of The Paradise Papers

The majority of newspapers on the 6th of November covered the stories of leaked documents revealing the financial information of the rich. It stated how rich people were keeping money outside of the UK, in places such as Switzerland, in order to avoid paying tax. The Guardian is a socialist newspaper and covered the story in a negative way. As a newspaper they showed a balanced view point as although they endorse capitalism, they view the uncovered information as a scandal. The Daily Mail juxtaposes this and views the Queen as a victim. We can see this through the usage of ''dragged'' in their headline. As well as the paradise papers story being covered on the front of their newspaper, they also featured Stranger Things star Millie Bobbie Brown, with a story relating to her worth of £5 million and listing her as a ''school girl'' which does not sexualise her and avoids the male gaze. Essentially, the Guardian only covered stories about the paradise p
