This collection brings together the leading approaches to the study of media discourse. It focuses on the media text (spoken, written or visual), but it also addresses issues of the production and reception of media discourse. Each chapter provides a brief outline of the authors approach to media discourse and then demonstrates 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. The example analyses focus on the factual media genres - news and public affairs - which have been the focus of most media discourse research.
