The tweet of the observer front page reflects it political, social
and cultural contexts in a variety of ways. Observer have presented their
political views in the bottom right corner of the front page with a slightly
persuasive push to left wing ideas wing ideas. In this case the political
issues is about Br-exit, Observer have purposefully made the headline a point
from a labour politician, as labour are a left wing party. This connotes that
the Observer want their readers to see from a certain view of what they have
written about therefore more left wing people read the Observer newspaper.
The Observer reflects social
contexts though its representations of a female runner on the front page as
well. By portraying a female runner on the page, the Observer show her
representing all of the female runners who are strong and independent. Also,
the way they have positioned her feet slightly outside the box connotes that
she is not held back by anything as the picture is not set to the normal box
layout standard.
Cultural contexts are also
shown on the observer front page. This can be seen through not only views of
white women runners but of Olympic runners of different ethnicity like Mo
Farah. This connotes to the Observer's readers that they support a diverse
range of background's in their news papers. Mo Farah is originally from Somalia
but grew up in England. This shows the Observer respect his strengths in his
difference of how he became a runner.
