This book presents a corpus-based study of the US print media representations of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election. It highlights substantial discrepancies in their media portrayals, essentially motivated by partisanship, journalistic norms, candidate-related attributes, and the unfolding global changes. It offers new theoretical and practical insights into research on political communication research, corpus linguistics, systemic functional linguistics, critical discourse analysis, and pragmatics.
