This research deals with representation and discourses, which are being presented on media actually, about old age and ageing, and leans on the social relevance of the theme, which is placed as a fundamental public issue of the current times. Starting from an overview that considers the old age as an object of knowing in appropriation by different fields and points to the multitude of approaches and ways of expression of the theme, this work aims to understand how the mentioned representations and discourses are placed as life coordination for them. For this purpose, it analyses posts shared at the webpage Portal do Envelhecimento, hosted at Facebook, more particularly journalistic articles regarding to the profile genre, originated from various sources. This study is based on the Language Science and on authors as Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, as well as on Michel Foucault. They contribute to think about the "words of order" for the discourses about the old age and the ageing, which are present in the media, assuming as a premise that such words can condition our apprehension about the world. The methodology is developed according to principles of Discourse Analysis in the French line of thought, with authors as Michel Pêuchex, Eni Orlandi e Dominique Maingueneau. In such backdrop, analysis parameters, which aims to identify the positions adopted in this discourse by the mentioned individuals, are proposed, from the apprehension through four priority axes: anonymous old age, public figures, LGBTI old age and centenary old age. Each one, presenting us specific scenes, contributes to compose a diversified map whose result shows us a thematic coverage under strong influence of the active ageing discourse. However, ageing that do not comply with these criteria are not considered. Then, we came across an overview that, if, on the one hand presents a multiplicity of new ways of engagement and ageing experiences in our days, on the other hand, presents on media the face of the exclusion of an age category whose reality asks for visibility in order to a greater respect, less stigma, greater attention and dignity.
