What do you notice about the difference in content and how the the articles convey this information? Why do you think that is?
The Daily Mail present there articles in a more informative way, by including more detailed information about the crime , more pictures e.t.c. This makes the audience more on edge and wanting to read on. The pictures shown are of the weapons, parents , and the building. By doing this, it gives the readers more initial information, before they've even read the story.
The title is also very bold and noticeable, more so than a broadsheet newspaper. 
The Times presents there information in a more formal way, meaning the newspaper makes readers less worried as they give less information and make it not as dramatic as tabloids would present this type of story. The pictures they use are minimal and doesn't tell the whole story through them so will intrigue readers into reading the full article.
