THE PECULIARITIES OF JOURNALISTIC STYLE

Abstract

In journalism, image and imagery have their own characteristics, which arise from the requirements imposed on journalism. Image and imagery, which can find expression in a broad sense in fiction and art, are somewhat limited and distinctive in journalism. This is due to the need to reflect the present day, which is the main task of journalism, to reflect the present, to form public opinion about the problems in it, to analyze life from a journalistic point of view and to draw the necessary conclusions. In the informational part of journalism, image and imagery are partially limited, and in most cases redundant. Because the main task of this part of journalism is to inform the public about facts, events and happenings, to deliver news. In this case, the interference of image and imagery leads to a distortion of the notion of message, news. The use of images and imagery is also limited in analytical journalism, which is the second most important part of journalism and is aimed at revealing the essence of facts, events and happenings in life through the assessment and analysis. But in some cases, a certain degree of imagery, animation, imagery can be used to illuminate the activities of people. At the same time, in a sense, imagery and figurativeness can be introduced to reveal the essence of life events and happenings, to animate, to awaken people’s senses. It is well known that a genre is a type of work of art that has its own characteristics in terms of form and content. The genres of journalism also have their own characteristics in terms of form and content, which, like genres in literature and art, grow from small to large, from individual to general, from simplicity to perfection. Genres related to the artistic type of journalism include sheets, essays, feuilletons, and pamphlets. In subsequent years, each of the functional styles in English linguistics has been studied separately.
