, 1 INTRODUCTION
The following examination portfolio will provide, definitions, explanations,
elaborations, and examples in relation to, Media, Language and Discourse, Textual
Analysis: Narrative and Argument, Questionnaire Surveys in Media Research and
Psychoanalysis and Television. An editorial opinion piece from any newspaper (print
or online) will be selected to conduct my own case study on the use of language by
the media. The main concepts or jargon from the text and their role in the text will be
identified, the audience will be identified as well, and a reason will be provided.
Functions of language from the text will be identified. In the portfolio, I will select an
advertisement and briefly discuss it and what it is all about. The concept “rhetoric”,
and “argumentation” will be defined and explained in detail. The difference between
deductive and inductive argument will be discussed. Additionally, I will do a
questionnaire survey, define population, discuss the difference between probability
and non-probability sampling, and design a questionnaire for the research study.
Lastly, I will Wwrite an essay focusing on the model for analysing a television
viewer’s involvement, in other words, the ways in which a viewer can interact with a
media text.
