چکیده

Nowadays news media have a great influence on people s thoughts in different societies. This is rooted in the inextricable integration of power and media in these societies. In news media, this integration relies mainly on language. Critical discourse analysis (CDA) contributes to the exploration the linguistic elements constructing and disseminating the political orientations of news media, even in critical periods of time. One of the recent events, in terms of the prevalence of media conflict due to the diversity of political orientations, was the death of Jamal Khashoggi, the famous Arab correspondent. Via CDA, in this study, different samples of the main Turkish and Saudi newspapers were selected to analyze their political orientations regarding this event. The analysis of the data was based on the framework of Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) and the Transitivity theory. The results showed that the percentage of verbal verbs in Turkish samples is about 3 times more than that of the Saudis’. Turkish newspapers have quoted numerous news sources, almost three times more than Saudi newspapers. One possible reason for this could be that Turkish journalists have used more explicit sources to further their credentials than their counterparts in Saudi newspapers. Also, while the Turkish newspapers were trying to address Saudi government s officials as committing a crime, the Saudi newspapers aimed to question the occurrence of the death, and then to relate the event to some disobedient persons in Saudi government.
