Abstract EN
News media play an important role in shaping public opinion.
Because news is a representation of the world in language (Fowler, 1991: 4), this research investigates the manner in which headlines of the top news websites mirror The New Suez Canal, which is a great project and a symbol of Egyptian national pride, on the sixth and the seventh of August 2015, which mark the inauguration of the New Suez Canal.
This research investigates the linguistic structures of headlines in the top news websites.
The variety of syntactic and lexical features of the sample headlines is analyzed.
To describe the syntactic features of headlines, three categories are investigated: the structure, the function and the complexity of the headlines.
To describe the lexical features of headlines, individual words under different categories of nouns, verbs, articles, adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, pronouns, prepositions are examined.
This paper incorporates critical discourse analysis as a method for analysis.
