Representations on front pages

In this image, I instantly assumed that it was a teenager in front of a car that he set fire to. In this representation, we are told it is about the London riots, and are therefore given the image of a stereotypical person who was involved  in the riots; teenagers.  The adjectives and verbs chosen such as 'mindless' and 'anarchy' have connotations of idiotic and reckless behaviours, which is often associated with youths.  'Anarchy' is in bold, capital letters which is eye catching.The person and burning car were actually photo shopped together, but the whole image looks as f the man is responsible. Also, there is an overall dark, grey tone of colour across the mage except for the bright fire. This represntation is typical of The Sun as they are known for being dramatic and exaggerating.
