“…We noticed: the majority of new publications in leading scientometric journals on "Manipulation in the Media" concern the post-Soviet space, which indicates the low relevance of the problem in the Western world and its high importance in the countries of young democracies. There, scholars are still investigating manipulation in political discourse (Kenzhekanova et al 2015) or the influence on public consciousness in the media (Arifkhanova, 2010). Other than that, massive changes in the roto-brain of military media persons percipients have not been investigated at all.…”

The article describes massive changes in the brain function of mass-media recipients. It is written within the relevant neuro social state of the Ukrainian mass media society in the conditions of undeclared military censorship and counter-propaganda. The material for analysis was two groups of data: content analysis of news media and a sociological survey of citizens for the presence of cognitive dissonance and lies that can violate neuroethics, namely, forming a distorted picture of the world, creating long-term deprivation and inadequate neural connections. The purpose of such research was to find out the regular influence of affective and defamatory infospace on the brains of people whose countries are at war. We clarified the nature of the newest manipulations in the media and around ethical issues, the state of research on the neuroethics of manipulations, comparing the nature of war journalistic manipulations in Russian and Ukrainian media and the objectification and explanation of neuroethical violations in Ukrainian media through the techniques of lying, silencing, avoidance, analysis, self-counting, etc. The authors used methods of theoretical, statistical, comparative and systemic analysis, content analysis, sociological methods of collecting background data and neuro interpretive methods for the received input data. The result of the article was a systematization of the manipulation of the brain in a state of permanent tension; in particular, we identified ways of institutional avoidance or deception and diagnosis of specific neuroethical threats and consequences among the population (emotional dependency, deprivation, emotional-cognitive dissonance, lack of entitlement to accurate truth, the difference between the content of the national and local media, etc.)

“…A thorough description of recent publications concerning the media discourse is presented in the work by Korytnik & Baranova (2020). The media discourse is regarded from different aspects: its content, specific features, and types are investigated (Kucherenko, 2019;Miroshnychenko, 2020); its classification aspects and correlations with other discourses are described; the mechanisms of its influence on the audience are revealed (Korol & Voloshchuk, 2020;de Leeuw, Azrout, Rekker, & Van Spanje, 2020;Kenzhekanova, Zhanabekova, & Konyrbekova, 2015;Amira, & Abraham, 2022). The abovementioned works demonstrate that the mass media discourse is a versatile phenomenon for research.…”

The article deals with the mass media discourse that covers different economic, social, and political aspects of everyday life and such global issues as sustainable development goals. The purpose of the research is to study lexical and stylistic derivation in the mass media discourse. The latter is regarded as a written, monological, informative political discourse indicating society’s language culture. The article identifies the ways of word-building employed in the analyzed discourse and suggests the classification of derived units. Besides, the stylistic properties of the mass media discourse are pointed out. The meanings and functions of the secondary nomination units as units of stylistic derivation (metaphors, metonymies, periphrases, epithets, irony) in the context are described. Renomination by similarity, contiguity and contrast is mentioned. Figures of combination (oxymoron, antithesis, simile) are analyzed in the article. The stylistic potential of phraseology is also considered. The work relies on the recent linguistic research of discourse as a communicative-pragmatic pattern of speech behavior, a complex combination of the process and result, and a coherent text with pragmatic, sociocultural, psychological, and extralinguistic factors. The conclusions are based on English and Ukrainian media, their linguistic and expressive markers.

“…Asya (2013) overviews the various types and strategies of manipulation in general and linguistic manipulation in particular, highlighting the theory of speech manipulation, with special emphasis on society-oriented manipulation where "the speaker doesn't construct the image of a separate listener, but creates generalized image of a group as a whole" (p. 80). Kenzhekanova et al (2015) focus more precisely on manipulation in political discourse of mass media, highlighting the tools of speech manipulation (TSM) on the phonographic, lexical, grammatical as well as lexical-pragmatic levels. Ali and Omar (2016) investigate the role of manipulative discourse in media representation of Russian military intervention in Syria, with special focus on headlines and lead stories.…”
