Abstract: This study examines the linguistic structures used for propagating specific ideologies through which discourses of a U.S. newspaper construct ideological representations of political events and situations in South Korea to the readers.Critical linguistic analysis is used to ex- amine the New York Times coverage of 'the massive labor strikes' in South Korea.The analysis contributes to the understanding of the ideological role of language within news discourse in constructing representations of the social world.Such research has important impli- cations for teaching awareness of the constructive and functional na- ture of language in general, and news discourse in particular, in and out of a school setting.0.
