AOB 4- Representation of music press

Stephen Gately was a singer in a very popular boyband called Boyzone. Gately died in 2009, unexpectedly, of an unknown death thought to be triggered by a build up of fluid in the lungs.
It was reported a few days after by Jan Moir that it was a 'strange, lonely and troubling death' in her column in the Daily Mail which had been changed from 'there was nothing natural about Stepehen Gately death' after many complaints.
She suggests that the death was 'more than a little sleazy'. She writes that what ever he died of it was by no standards a natural cause and that all the postmortem shows is that it was not murder but anything else could have happened. She thinks the circumstances are too weird and that people as young as Gately do not just die in their sleep like he did.
This annoyed and upset Gately's family and fans, they were not happy in how Moir had described the death. Describing it in the Guardian as 'a catty take on the death....' going on to say it 'pandered to the prejudices of its readers'. and in the article by Brooker it says how it was hateful and spiteful towards him and his family. Brooker uses sarcastic language of Moir being a criminal investigator to show her feeling of how dare she write this.
The Daily Mail and the Guardian is targeted at completely different audiences and therefore the content is going to do this. The Daily Mail is a tabloid newspapers targeted at a less educated more working/ medium class audience. A big thing in this type of newspapers which the readers like is the controversial content so this type of story and big controversial headlines is quite common however offensive it may seem. A reader of the guardian however is said to be more a upper class individual who's likes to go into a lot of detail for the stories and this is exactly what the guardian does. Because of this the audience are going to want to read different stories or the same story but in different ways. So when it comes to a death of a celebrity the Daily Mail likes to look into it deeply and sharply and pin point and triple-guess what might have happened in some ways they may appear offensive in how they do this. Whereas the guardian only reports what is known and thinks that a lot of what the Daily Mail and other taboilds say is a lot of rubbish. This is what so of the readers think too.
