‘People queue for last day of Banksy's Dismaland’-BATHCHRONOLOGICAL
 
 
http://www.bathchronicle.co.uk/Pictures-People-queue-day-Banksy-s-Dismaland/story-27877388-detail/story.html Visitors to Banksy's Dismaland have toured the pop-up "bemusement park" for the final time.

This article describes the park in detail with lots of adventurous vocabulary and exaggeration. Although it does focus on some facts, like that it captured ‘150,000 paying visitors and £20m to the seaside town’ which gives the readers an insight to how it is benefiting their local are this differs from the other article as it uses more formal language which is also fact based in the introduction but goes on to get a lot of quotes from visitors ‘Mr Sanks said:’, ‘Rachel said:’ this gives the readers primary evidence of how other visitors found the experience. Both articles said positive things about the temporary attraction with their words being backed up by delighted visitors. Both articles used statistics ‘50 artists from around the world’ and ‘£20m’ to prove how bus and how much of a success this was for Weston which was Banksys plan for this project, as it is his local area and he has said to have used the old ‘Tropicana’ a lot when he was a young boy.
