Abstract:

Redefining Trial by Media: Towards a critical-forensic linguistic interface
applies a range of linguistic models to recast trial by media not as a
sensationalist and infrequent phenomenon, but as a systematic and routine
process. Using critical discourse analysis and cognitive linguistic models,
this book builds a Spectrum of Trial by Media which views juries in criminal
trials as moulded by ideological media-made constructions of crime. The role
of these media constructions is enhanced by the isolation levied on jurors by
the linguistic composition of trial language, and reinforced by the language
strategies of legal professionals in court. Critically deconstructing media
portrayals of crime and forensically examining the language of criminal
proceedings, this book offers a redefinition of trial by media which casts the
role of the press as much more prevalent in the courtroom trial than is
presently appreciated.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
