| Sumario: | In this paper, we propose a methodological approach to the linguistic study of a journalistic corpus. It analyzes the monitoring of the financial crisis in Spain in 2012 by two of the most important Spanish newspapers. The paper describes ongoing research into expressions of opinion in the discourse of the news about the financial crisis in Spain. In other words, this corpus-driven study investigates the expression of opinions through language in order to develop a semantic analysis of newspaper discourse. The methodological approach involves both quantitative and qualitative analysis. The investigation focuses on the analysis of the language used to present and evaluate the events related to the financial crisis as a prelude to unmask the ideologies implicit in texts. |
