摘要

在新闻报道中,合法化话语通常以微妙和含蓄的方式存在,潜在地影响着人们的社会认知和决策。基于Cap的趋同理论,本文考察了《华盛顿邮报》在报道美联储救助政策时的话语合法化策略。通过对语料库的三个维度进行整合和分析,我们发现时间收敛的目的是将未来的假设与当前的事件联系起来,突出美联储在解决次贷危机中的重要作用,以构建该行为的合法性。另一方面,空间趋同强调了以金融机构为代表的外部实体对以美国为代表的内部实体的负面影响,以及内部实体所采取措施的积极影响,从而为争论自己的话语和行为的合法性铺平了道路。另一方面,价值趋同通过展示话语空间中外部和内部实体之间的价值和意识形态冲突,展示了意识形态冲突转化为实际冲突的可能性。本文对趋同理论的研究有助于构建和阐释政治话语的合法性,同时也在一定程度上为后续的趋同与合法化理论研究提供借鉴。

A Study of Strategies for the Legitimation of News Discourse Based on the Perspective of Convergence Theory: ——Take the Washington Post’s news coverage of the Federal Reserve’s bailout policies during the subprime crisis as an example
In news reporting, legitimising discourse is usually present in subtle and implicit ways, potentially influencing people’s social cognition and decision making. Based on Cap’s convergence theory, this paper examines the legitimising discourse strategies in the Washington Post’s coverage of the Federal Reserve’s bailout policy. Through the integration and analysis of the three dimensions of the corpus, it is found that temporal convergence aims to link future presuppositions with present events, highlighting the Federal Reserve’s large role in solving the subprime mortgage crisis, in order to construct the legitimacy of the act. Spatial convergence, on the other hand, highlights the negative impact of the external entity represented by the NFIs on the internal entity represented by the US and the positive impact of the measures taken by the internal entity, thus paving the way for arguing the legitimacy of one’s own discourses and behaviours. Value convergence, on the other hand, demonstrates the potential for ideological conflict to be transformed into actual conflict by showing the clash of values and ideologies between external and internal entities in the discursive space. The study of convergence theory in this paper contributes to the construction and interpretation of the legitimation of political discourse and, at the same time, to some extent provides a reference for subsequent research on convergence and legitimation theory.
