Abstract:

This collection brings together in one volume current leading
approaches to the study of media discourse.


Its focus is on the media text (spoken, written or visual), but it
also addresses issues of the production and reception of media
discourse. Chapters provide a brief outline of the authors approach to
media discourse and then demonstrate how the approach works in
practice by close analysis of sample texts. The applicability of the
frameworks is discussed, and guidelines are offered on how to use
them.
