Azerbaycan-Ermenistan Çatışması Haber Metinlerinin Eleştirel Söylem Çözümlemesi

Abstract

The critical approach claims that press organizations from time to time reproduce the ideology that power has, assuming the function of the ideological apparatus of the state, against the view that news texts advocated by the liberal approach act as mirrors when conveying events and transmit impartially. Many different elements come into play in the reproduction of ideology by press organizations. In addition to economic or political affiliations, culture, identity, or religious motivations can also be reasons for ideological intimacy. These reasons can be reflected in the news texts and enable ideology to shape the discourse. Therefore, the historical background plays an important role in determining the ideology of the state in the light of the historical, cultural, religious or linguistic aspects of the relationship between Turkey and Azerbaijan, and in the relationship between Turkey and Armenia. Thus, how the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia in the Karabakh region reflected on Cumhuriyet, Turkgun and Sabah newspapers within the framework of these effects of ideology was examined by applying van Dijk's discourse analysis model. Eventually, it was determined how the ideological acceptance of Turkey in the Karabakh conflict, Azerbaijan and Armenia, was reflected by three newspapers. Finally, it was concluded that discourses of all three newspapers were ethnically unified but differed in ideology, religion and culture. Among the differences in question is that the newspapers Sabah and Turkgun, in particular, developed a more nationalistconservative and Pro-Azerbaijani discourse than Cumhuriyet newspaper.
