Does your teacher know this is what your doing your CW on? because sampling usualy refers to your method of gathering participants, which you would not have in this study.

after looking through my notes this study is probably a cross-sectional comparison study - ' comparing 2 or more groups on a particular variable'. But just as a tip if you are just planning on researching newspapers for your CW I'n not entirely sure if you can do this as I think your information needs to be gathered first hand to show your ability to carry out an experiment properly and ethicaly, ask your teacher if you havent allready.
