In this thesis, the researcher examines how three Russian-language news outlets — Deutsche Welle, Radio Liberty and RT — framed the 2014 Crimean crisis. Using a corpus of 826 online news items from 20 February to 21 March 2014, the study applies Critical Discourse Analysis and Corpus-Assisted Discourse Analysis to uncover each outlet’s stylistic, structural and discursive tactics and strategies. The author shows how RT’s “reclamation” rhetoric, DW’s mediating stance, and Radio Liberty’s resistant counter-narrative shape competing political realities in the news discourse by linking ideological inclinations and editorial missions with linguistic choices.

Abstract

In this thesis, the researcher examines how three Russian-language news outlets — Deutsche Welle, Radio Liberty and RT — framed the 2014 Crimean crisis. Using a corpus of 826 online news items from 20 February to 21 March 2014, the study applies Critical Discourse Analysis and Corpus-Assisted Discourse Analysis to uncover each outlet’s stylistic, structural and discursive tactics and strategies. The author shows how RT’s “reclamation” rhetoric, DW’s mediating stance, and Radio Liberty’s resistant counter-narrative shape competing political realities in the news discourse by linking ideological inclinations and editorial missions with linguistic choices.
