The Guardian depicts the same photo as the previous newspapers, despite it being a broadsheet and not a tabloid, and the headline uses the term 'Battle' which represents the riots as a 'war' between the rioters and the police. However, the headline doesn't explicitly state a discontent for the rioters, and doesn't swing in favour of the the police. It employs a sense of ambiguity in order to hint that there is an underlying reason to the riots besides criminality.
