Both of the news broadcasts present are from different news paper companies yet both consist of the same image and headline! This reinforces to the world that teenagers are the main cause of the rioting. The image shows this typical 'hooded youth' individual so sow the world and todays youth are responsible for the distraction of the town. The fire we see behind him was mostly likely not set alite by him yet the media have taken an the picture of him walking past and captured it purposely to put direct blame on the male in the frame.
The repetition of the lexis 'Anarchy' suggests: chaos, negativity and violence which again is used to reinforce the seriousness and the rioting and attacking. With headings needing to be short and snappy, they need to specifically choose words that are appropriate and short enough so the audience know what they mean and conjure up connotations in the audiences head. Audiences are primarily adults and people who buy newspapers; in which younger people would typically not be seen buying newspapers. More intellectual people who would as well as the media, blame the 'wasted youth'.
