Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of negative politeness strategies in workplace interactions as depicted in the film Bombshell (2019). Based on the politeness theory proposed by Brown and Levinson (1987), this study focuses on ten negative politeness sub-strategies and the social factors that influence them, namely social distance, power, and level of imposition. The approach used is qualitative with documentation method. Data in the form of utterances from the film's four main characters, namely Roger Ailes, Megyn Kelly, Gretchen Carlson, and Kayla Pospisil, were collected through dialogue transcription and verification with online scripts. Data analysis was carried out through reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that of the fifteen utterances analyzed, all ten negative politeness strategies emerged. The most frequently used strategies were Be Conventionally Indirect, Minimize the Imposition, Give Deference, Impersonalize Speaker and Hearer, and State the FTA as a General Rule, each appearing twice. Power proved to be the most dominant variable: speakers with lower power tended to use deference and minimization strategies, while speakers with higher power used indirectness as a means of control. This research contributes to the development of pragmatic understanding in professional contexts and offers practical implications for film-based English language teaching
