Local News Article 2 - was taken form the Hendon and Finchley Times. This article is about Anthony Joshua and his first boxing victory in the O2 Centre. It starts with a direct use of 'Familiarity' as the story takes place in London and the boxer is British (Hendon/Finchley are in London). In some ways Anthony Joshua is an elite person as he won a Gold Medal for Great Britain in the Olympics. This Local article contains 'Immediacy' as it was published on the night of the event. However, in comparison to a National Article this Local Article has no elements of 'Personalisation' (it is not a human interest story) nor a large impact on the reader - this may be due to the fact that this article is targeted at a small population of people (boxing fans). It probably only features so prominently in the newspaper because the boxer is from the local area.
