I do not think the two texts treats the tragic event equal because ‘The Daily Telegraph’ tells the story with a formal language and without too much personal and brutal information. While ‘The Sun’ uses many details that is inappropriate and they also use slang which does not fit into a respective news article.

There is a place in the two texts that is identical:

‘The Daily Telegraph’:

‘The Sun’:

They are identical because they tell the same thing in the same style. But ‘The Sun’ tells the name and age on the family another place in the texts but also in the same relevant way. Yet ‘The Sun’ still has unnecessary information involved (Station Road North).
