Media discourse studies: generalities and specifics in political discourse
The paper addresses political discourse specifics in global mass media as exemplified by the coverage of events in Egypt of 2013 and other latest political and economic developments. It gives a critical review of Russian literature written on the subject of mass media and stresses the need to elaborate cognitive interpretation techniques required to understand the global media content currently formed on the Internet. The author shows stereotyped expressions and evaluative connotations of political terms in the context of mass-media. In conclusion different approaches (linguistic and rhetoric) to political discourse analysis are considered, and the latest events shaping discourse investigations enumerated.
