Examples of women being represented in the new paper
In a copy of the observer from 2018 a woman is shown with her fist in the air, bringing enpowerment and strength along with her image, unlike the woman seen from the 1960's who looked quite timid and were really only shown for the image and appearance rather than her brains, on the other hand the other woman is seen as almost a strong protester in a march so she was being shown for her social impact rather than her looks.
A different way in which woman used to represented in the news paper
Unlike in the modern day Observer, the old copies printed in the 1960's represented women in a much different way to how they are now. Similar to way in which women were represented every where else in the media, the news papers didn't care much for the women themselves but only cared for their looks, unless said women is well known or royal such as queen Elizabeth II. For example, on one of the papers from the 1960's a friend of Paul MCcartney is seen with a caption saying "My face and I" telling us that article is about her looks and appearance. This was normal for the time but now that would be seen as stereotypical saying that women only care about looks.
Example of the cold war being mentioned
On the copy of the Observer from the 30th of October, there is a small heading titled "America accused of spy frame-up". Around that time the subject of the cold war would've been a common subject among news papers, as it represents and updates us about the growing tensions between the US and the Soviet Union. It was accusation after accusation about how the Soviets were sending spies into the US and other countries. The first episode of the Avengers referenced these with shady looking people in a town which was usually deserted, the perfect place for spies.
Examples of domestic disasters
On the copy of the Observer from the 6th of November, one of the smaller headlines read "Man flees from police guard in hospital", also stating that in order to fool the guards, he placed books under the covers of his bed in the shape of him in order to fool the police guards. This shows that the police clearly have a lack of competence or at least that is what the public would think anyway and can almost be seen as a joke.
Example of European disaster
On the copy of the Observer from the 6th of November, it states that a plane had crash landed in the middle of the French Alps. seven people we aboard the plane and unfortunately it was almost impossible to find them.
