Discursive Anatomy of Opinion in Journalism

This article aims to enroll the argument in the journalistic field, specifically, on the opinionated journalism and present a possible anatomy of opinion, from the Aristotelian rhetoric justifying the values that shape it and the circumstances in which it is produced. It is considered that arguing is an act of communication, an action by the speech, whose goal is to persuade the audience to share a particular point of view. We intend to demonstrate, through an analytical grid that opinionated news text constitutes a whole that is divided into identifiable parts in its structure.
