This 20-slide poem analyses Alan Gillis’ poem, ‘Bulletin from The Daily Mail’.
Exploring Gillis’ use of humour to satirise how tabloid newspapers demonise supposedly anti-social members of society, this lesson deconstructs the poem’s use of hyperbole, repetition, rhyme, and - of course - language.
Questions and discussion points are included around the subject of news - its dissemination, agenda, and importance to our modern society. An essay question is included for students at the end.
A copy of the poem is included within the PowerPoint.
