“…This is the hibridity described by Ekstrom & Patrona (2011). A similar shift has been detected in talk shows and reality television (Garcé s-Conejos, Lorenzo-Dus, Bou-Franch, 2010;Brenes Peña, 2011). In interviews with politicians, however, the topic discussed, the status of the interviewee, and the register employed ensure that the level of impoliteness is lower than that of the celebrity interview.…”

“…Our approach is based on a variationist conception of pragmatics (Schneider-Barron 2008, Fuentes Rodrí guez 2013 whereby the assessment of a situation as polite or impolite is arrived at on the basis of the behaviour that is considered appropriate in a communicative situation (Locher and Watts 2005). This allows us to avoid both the two-way linguistic element-social effect association and ethnocentrism (Locher and Watts 2005, Fuentes Rodrí guez 2010a, Brenes Peña 2011.…”

“…In the specific case of Spanish, some of the most important studies are analyses of blatant impoliteness in chat shows (Brenes Peña 2011, Placencia-Fuentes 2013, talk shows (Garcí a Gómez, 2000), reality shows (Garcé s et al 2013;Blas Arroyo, 2014) and quiz competitions (Brenes Peña 2009. We were unable to find any detailed study on this type of discourse which included the divergences caused by the type of program or the style adopted.…”

This paper analyses Spanish television interviews and presents a contrast between the impolite argumentative strategies employed by the interviewer to attack the image of the interviewee in interviews with politicians and celebrities. It aims to demonstrate how the topic addressed and the subtype of interview influence the strategies employed and degree of impoliteness shown by the interviewer. The analysis of our corpus has shown that the current television interview differs from the traditional format of this genre in a number of respects. Impoliteness is used in Spanish interviews in order to attract the audience and to build the journalist"s face in political interviews as participants in ideological confrontation. Nevertheless, the detailed study of the impoliteness strategies employed by the interviewer has shown that the modification of features largely depends on the subtype examined. We observed in television celebrity interviews a wider range of strategies of verbal impoliteness, which are absent from political interviews. This explains why a variationist perspective has been adopted in the analysis of verbal impoliteness.

“…Desde los estudios de la cortesía y, particularmente, a partir de los aportes de la pragmática sociocultural (Bravo & Bernal, 2015;Brenes, 2011;Fuentes, 2016;Fuentes & Alcaide, 2008; y, en general, Estudios sobre el Discurso de la Cortesía en Español [EDI-CE], 2017), se ha analizado el insulto como un acto descortés que transgrede las normas sociales de los intercambios comunicativos. Esa transgresión responde a premisas culturales que hacen específica la evaluación descortés en cada comunidad de práctica (Kaul, 2014).…”

“…Within the context of reality television, research on relational aggression has mainly focused on the analysis of conflict management at an interpersonal level (Brenes Peña, 2011; García-Gómez, 2007; Lorenzo-Dus, 2010). More specifically, different studies present a genre-based approach to impoliteness (Garcés-Conejos Blitvich, 2009, 2010) and others focus on the role of the mediator (Myers, 2001) and conflict triggers that may lead to an episode of verbal intimidation (Hutchby, 2001; Lorenzo-Dus, 2000).…”

Since the 1990s, the reality television phenomenon has transformed the face of television in many countries (O’Loughlin, 2004). In Spain, for instance, the private domain has gradually invaded the public domain in an attempt to increase audience ratings and also reflect patterns of asymmetrical societal organization (García-Gómez, 2009). Different television formats, which range from docusoaps to the most blatant examples of so-called ‘voyeur television’ (Higgins, 2009), have occupied the prime-time hours. In particular, a wide range of reality television shows has taken the place that mini-series, sitcoms and films of the week used to occupy. These reality television programmes show the transformation of the private domain into one which can be manipulated and incorporated as an essential element in the theatricalization of the intimate experiences of anonymous people (Myers, 2001). By addressing the relationship between mothering and gendered styles, this study adds to the field of research on reality television research by investigating language and gender within the institutional setting of a docusoap and throwing light on the discursive strategies which two different generations of women use to express anger and assertiveness and impose on others. The study reveals that the strategies used by the Spanish female teenagers under scrutiny are associated with hostile laddish verbal behaviour, whereas the mothers’ strategies relate to an instrumental view of aggression.
