News bulletin comparison

I looked at two different radio stations for this part of my research. I listened to the news bulletins on BBC Radio 1 and TalkSport. Both these stations are run by the BBC so I thought it would be interesting to know which stories took priority in each station. On the day I did this research there was a tornado in the US that killed many people so that story was the first to be reported on for each of the stations, even though Radio 1 is aimed at a teenage audience and TalkSport at a predominantly male audience. On TalkSport the second story was sport based and on Radio 1 it was celebrity based, this is because it's what the stations audience wants to hear. My station is a Olympic station it might be hard to get the right balance between relevant stories that aren't relates to the games.
