What do you notice about the difference in content and how the articles convey this information?

The Daily Mail definitely include more detail about the families and witnesses of the incident. They show individual images of all the victims involved allowing the reader to form a view on them. They show close up photographs of where the accident happened and the crowds of people mourning about the event which has just happened. They even include images of the notes people have written on bunches of flowers placed at the scene; this seems very invasive because these messages are private and personal, not to be seen by all the Daily Mail online viewers. Extending the invasive journalism are videos which have been taken following the fatal  crash (participatory media). However the layout of this newspaper is clear because they have a list of bullet points right at the start of the article summarising what has happened.

In contrast, the Telegraph article of the same event seems to be a lot shorter but more simplistic. This newspaper use a lot less invasive pictures and a lot less of them. They use a shot of the street where the crash happened to let the readers know little information, this could be because they are respectful of the families.
