Sites: 1. Reuters 2. Mail and Guardian Online

In these articles the situation that occurred is very well explained. What happend is a British Mercinary, but the name of Simon Mann, was jailed for plotting against the Equatorial Guinea. When Simon was released earlier this month he said that South Africa tactically supported a coup from 2004, in and oil-rich African country.The support of this coup could have been useful because if the coup succeeded the government would get a large amount of oil, however this coup failed. When i read these two articles I thought that the article from Mail and Guardian online was easier to read. I thought this might be because at the begging there is something like a second title. Something that describes the entire article in a quick summary. There was also something like this at the begging of the Reuters article, however it was longer and wasn't as easy to understand.
