Abstract

In recent times, the French media has been filled with news about the demonstrators who were later called the Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vests). The demonstrators took to the streets in order to protest the policies of the government of Emmanuel Macron. Articles that appeared in various French newspapers preached the event from various perspectives according to the political ideology carried out by each newspaper. This paper focused on media framing in French newspapers regarding the demonstration of the Gilets Jaunes. The Critical Discourse Analysis approach from Norman Fairclough critical theory was used as the analytical knife in this study. Articles used as data sources were analysed to trace the causal relationships that were not seen between practices in discourses, relations, and social-cultural processes. The process of social interaction in question refers to the process of producing text and the process of interpreting texts, which are related to social practices. The media frame of the leftist political ideology newspaper, which reports on the demonstration of the Gilets Jaunes, was used as a primary reference to explain the relationship between language, ideology, and identity that is often hidden.
