Black Panther Stars Surprise a Student With a Full Scholarship

https://www.teenvogue.com/story/black-panther-stars-surprise-a-student-with-a-full-scholarship



This is an example of soft news. The article is about the stars of Black Panther providing a scholarship to a student set up by Walt Disney Studios.

This appeals to an audience as it fits with the values of the organisation to empower women and represent those of BAME descent. I think this is clickbait, it's not hard news. But I do think it reflects the values and ideologies of the website. People who are going to university soon will look up to this as maybe some sense of admiration to the stars and the student who got the scholarship. The target audience of the website is 18-24 so it will get a lot of views.

McDonald's: 1) McDonald's  is a brand that promotes fast food and works to provide consumers with the products they require. Referring to Dyer's lines of appeal , i think that McDonald would fit under the category of happy families ; the fact that everyone wants to belong. This is due to the fact that McDonald's brings families together and creates an atmosphere of happiness for most of the community.Furthermore, McDonald's would also fit with the category of childhood as it creates happy meals associated with small toys to create gratification for the younger consumers.
