The impact of technological change on newspapers
The daily mail:
The stories that the daily mail produce are usually exaggerated and this helps produce more income and money for the daily mail. This helps protect the revenue and profits for the communities. Most of the stories produced are about celebrities to make them more modern and appeal to a wider audience.
To help with make more money near the top of the page, just below the first main story there is a box that has their social media tags on and says 'follow us' so if someone shares the daily mail then their family/friends may read it and this could help contribute to produce more of the income.
