La construction discursive de l’événement rapporté dans les textes des genres informatifs de la presse fran-çaise

Abstract

This paper sets out to define an approach to the construction of the informative discourse in the press, specially the gender of the news. To do so, the theories of Charaudeau will be used as a model of analysis. First, the article examines the discursive procedures that the journalist-enunciator uses in order to transmit the problematic facts of current issues to the reader. The choice and organization of those discursive elements will be always influenced by his point of view. The article then analyses the scheme of components that organizes the prototype of the text of the news. This model of enunciation is finally tested through the analyses of several press articles.
