Ownership and Regulation

The Daily Telegraph is a Broadsheet newspaper published on a daily basis, and was established in 1855. It is owned by 'The Barclay Brothers' Press Holdings' company, and is a supporter of the conservative party.


Another newspaper owned by 'The Barclay Brothers' Press Holdings' is The Sunday Telegraph. It is only published on Sundays, and is a broadsheet that was established in 1961. As well as having the same owner as the Daily Telegraph, it also supports the conservative party.


In 1785, The Times was established. In 2004, it became a Compact newspaper that followed the ideas of the conservative party. The company with ownership of this newspaper isn't as well known as some of the others, and they are the 'News Corporation- Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch'.


Yet another Sunday-published newspaper is The Sunday Times, which is a broadsheet newspaper and was established in 1822. The owner is news Corporation- Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch, and its a Conservative paper.


The Guardian is published everyday, and will post stories in support of the labour party. In 1821, the newspaper was first established by its owner Scott Trust Limited and has been in the Berliner format since September 2005.


Since January 2006, The Observer has been a Berliner, although it was originally established in 1791. It is owned by Scott Trust Limited, and unlike the other newspapers under this company, it doesn't support any political party from the 2017 General Election.

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.

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.
