Essay from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, Queen's University Belfast, course: Introduction to Linguistics, language: English, abstract: How inherently different representations of the same event in media can be, due to ideological linguistic choices, shall be demonstrated in this essay. Furthermore, it will be pointed out why these choices are problematic and what impact they can have on consumers of news. In order to do so, a newspaper article about an industrial dispute in higher education from the Daily Mail1 and an article about the same event by the Guardian, both published on 22nd February 2018, will be scrutinised from a critical linguistic perspective. The analysis shall focus on differing patterns of transitivity, representation of social actors and naming practices.
