Abstract

This paper presents, upon the consideration of extra linguistic and linguistic aspects, the analysis of discursive movements applied to the informative function and, above all, to the defense of an institutional axiological position arising from the news. Bakhtin Circle's propositions (1994, 2003, 2006, 2007, 2008) gathered in the proposal of the Dialogic Speech Analysis (BRAIT, 2006) support the discussion. The analysis of linguistic aspects is illustrated by categories of the normative grammar and highlights the description of linguistic forms from which the institution marks its axiological position, disclosing its opinion. We have analyzed a corpus composed by 30 texts, with several extracts being used as examples, and from which two have been analyzed in full.
