Regarding the importance of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) in discovering the way ideology is diffused through the prevalence of various discourses, the present paper is an attempt to illustrate how the ideological and political considerations are realized through textual features of Negation and Repetition as well as intertextual features of Argumentation and Persuasion. Reports about Iran’s nuclear program provided by IAEA’s Director General are examples of mediating role which such genres play to dictate the underlying contemplations of their producers. Using Fairclough three-dimensional framework for studying discourse at three levels of micro, meso and macro, it is shown how the language used in these 38 reports is not merely a vehicle of explicit transmission of knowledge but a means of implicit construction of ambiguity. An attempt has been made to demonstrate how an organization such as IAEA with a technical body through politicized linguistic elements directs the readers’ impression of the IAEA reports and consequently revises and constructs their ideologies.
