Abstract

This article discusses the hypothesis of the existence of a discursive voice in newspapers or news programs, in a level that goes beyond some news or an assembly of texts. Observing differences and ways of articulation between the news and the newspapers or programs, it undertakes a critical review of some concepts from discursive analysis and of authors such as Eric Landowski and Maurice Mouillaud in order to explore the theoretical-methodological challenges related to the perception of the newspaper/program as a “semiotic subject” and “discursive agent”.

Key words: news, newspapers, discourse, narrative, voice.
