| Summary: | This paper analyzes the hypermedia text of a news item by means of media
linguistic analysis. The heuristic value of an interdisciplinary approach
underlying media linguistic analysis consists primarily in the allocation of
units suitable for the analysis of media communication. These units are the
result of an activity-based delimitation of the speech flow, consisting of
professional mass media speech and non-professional one, i.e. online group
dialogues. The analysis reveals a smooth transition from professional, i.e.
socio-oriented communication, to non-professional, i.e. personalityoriented
communication. The latter type of communication is a polylogue, which is
engendered in the form of comments in response to published news. The
analysis confirms our data obtained earlier, as well as those of other
researchers who present the hypermedia news in the form of a wave that
includes several periods due to uneven activity in the receipt of messages.
In accordance with the dominant modality in the texts, these periods are
divided into those of reporting, evaluation and stimulation. |
