Abstract
Looking at the situation of the media and the press in countries where the rate of corruption is low, we can well understand the defined relationship between the role of the press and the media in the fight against corruption. Since the institutionalization of corruption in the country has caused the country to deviate from the path of development, we seek to identify different trends of corruption in the written and spoken discourses of newspapers and we want to show how this issue with ideologies. Which lies in the production of news is consistent. The four newspapers Vatan-e-Amrooz, Shargh, Etemad, and Kayhan have been used for the study, and each of these newspapers has been selected as a sample to analyze and interpret the issue of corruption based on a theoretical sample. To answer the research questions, the methods of Holliday transient system analysis were used. Through the Holliday transient system, as well as the pattern of highlighting and marginalization, we sought to analyze headlines and news headlines about corruption in each newspaper. We seek to answer the question of how each newspaper introduces the individuals, institutions, organizations and discourses involved in corruption through various techniques. The results show that the press is not neutral and impartial. Each of the newspapers represented the desired issues that were in their interests, and all the efforts of the newspapers in reflecting on corruption, highlighting the corruption attributed to the other and the other, marginalizing and ignoring the corruptions of their own discourse.
