Abstract

In this era, the function of the language is not only for communication with each other but also can influence the views or thoughts of others to come with our thoughts. This case can be called by propaganda. Sometimes propaganda conveys a true and objective message. However, the message is often misleading where the content of the message merely conveys the selected facts that can produce a certain or just give an emotional reaction rather than a rational reaction. The goal of propaganda is to change the cognitive thoughts of others within the target group for a particular interest. In this propaganda is often accompanied by abusive actions against the norms, rules, obligations or laws of the state. This action is called a radical action. Propagandist wants a change of state that occurs today through a message. This paper is aimed to find out the text or linguistic analysis, social cognition and social context in the three electronic newspapers through Teun A. van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis model.
