1) Whose perspective have Sky News used to present the story? (Clue: it’s in the opening line)
They are showing different related stories about the Tottenham riots
the young people are represented to be violent 3) The young people are represented as teenagers who are against the law and the police and so are antagonized and seen as the enemy against the public.
4) Images and videos shown are the aftermath of the "RIOTS" as it has footage of damaged property as well as some video of the protests as the police go against the protesters.
5) Choice of words include "RIOTS", "violence", "hooded and masked attacked Tottenham police station", "full-scale riot", "damage ruins into millions of pounds", "one police officer was hospitalized and seven others injured", "a simmering anger at police". All these choices of words antagonizes the protesters as being represented as villains.
6) The aspect that has been taken by Sky News is the view of the "rioters" causing chaos at Tottenham rather than the protesters view on the death caused by a policeman.
7) Narrative is used by introducing to the audience what has happened in the riots with the voice-over footage to tell what has happened. Also, the police interview is added to give a little more depth for their views making it a story.
8) The Todorov's equilibrium theory is also featured having the riots being the main disequilibrium. There doesn't seem to be a new equilibrium as the news tends to not have the issue resolved as that is what news programmes tends to report. (unless a report with details of the "rioters" being brought to "justice" is mentioned some time later)
10) the publics accessibility for news progrrames: is Citizen journalism can be used to present a different view of the riots by cutting out moment where the police appears to attacks first so they edit it and make the attacks go in reverse order making the rioters looking like the culprits and the maniacs compared to being a peaceful protest that has then changed into a worsen situation. They may have also just cut out the moments where the police attack.

e police as they are trying to stop the rioters from causing much chaos. The villains are the protestors...
9) The Propps' theory is also displayed as we see the villains being protesters who are portrayed as dangerous people who are destroying property and police cars by having buses and a police car destroyed. The "villains" are also shown on the attack against the police.
