Abstract
This paper analyzes the influence of ideology on the journalistic message on the basis of materials published about Alexander Litvinenko by The Times, The Sun and Pravda. The paper applies the concept presented by Teun A. van Dijk, who identifies the following aspects of message structure: lexical elements, implications, presuppositions, descriptions, cohesion, semantic events, semantic and external structures. The analysis involves the examples taken from the articles about the Litvinenko issue to show how ideologies and opinions can be present in the content of journalistic accounts.License
