I was recently looking over two articles over the Ginna nuclear-power plant accident in different magazines. The first being Time, whose article in the week of February 8th, 1982 was titled "Springing a Radioactive Leak." In the same week authors, William D. Marbach, Susan Argrest, John Carey and Mary Lord, from Newsweek Magazine published a similar article titled "Again a Nuclear Mishap." When reading these articles I discovered just how different their viewpoints were expressed through …showed first 75 words of 770 total…

…showed last 75 words of 770 total…much more laid back in its choices of words, length, and references to previous occurrences. However, Newsweek was more formal when they discussed the event. This could be because Newsweek is a business-based magazine whereas Time is a general interest magazine. Newsweek tended to be more formal because they only expressed the important business aspects. Time tended to give a more light approach because the public would be reading the article more than business affiliates.
