<![CDATA[This study analyzes the representation of the Turkish government in news published on Hürriyet.com during May 2024, following the Gaza events of 7 October 2023. Using Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis, the research examines text (micro), discursive practice (meso), and social practice (macro) dimensions. At the micro level, the study identifies the use of formal diplomatic terms like güven mektubu (letter of credentials) and büyükelçi (ambassador), as well as emotionally charged diction and complex sentence structures that blend formality with criticism of Israeli policies.
