Unveiling Ideological Discourses: Analyzing Media Headlines in the Palestine-Israel Conflict
Öz
This research employs Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to examine news headlines from various publications concerning the Palestine-Israel con-flict, aiming to uncover the ideological disparities reflected in these headlines. By utilizing CDA, the study provides valuable insights into the ideologi-cal nuances of newspaper headlines, contributing to an exploratory understanding of newspapers' ideological characteristics and serving as a founda-tional resource for discourse studies within lan-guage departments. The findings can enhance students' reading comprehension skills and guide EFL instructors in their teaching methodologies for reading instruction. The analysis focuses on head-lines from four Turkish newspapers—Sözcü, Habertürk, Yeni Akit, and Türkgün—each repre-senting different ideological perspectives. Through a linguistic analysis based on Topicalization, passivization, and information subcategories, the study reveals despite differing ideologies, newspa-pers can converge on similar humanitarian mes-sages in the context of the Palestine-Israel conflict. The research underscores the significance of examining Language and discourse to uncover underlying ideologies.
