The writer analyzed two advertorial articles from the national and lifestyle sections using three indicators from Keraf's language style theory (2006): vocabulary, sentence length, and sentence structure. Additionally, the study was supported by theories of syntax, inversion, and sentences. Conducted using the qualitative method, the study revealed that CNN Indonesia employed all three language styles in their national and lifestyle advertorial articles. The national advertorial article mostly used the formal language style, while the lifestyle advertorial article mostly used the informal and conversational language style.
