Abstract EN
The chapter is an introduction to the issues of disinformation in the context of discursively oriented theory and anlysis of media genres. The category of genre is one of the basic categories relating to text, its structure, functions and semantics, including media text. In the context of disinformation, this category appears primarily in relation to fake news, which is treated as a genre imitating the features of the news genre. Therefore, the purpose of this chapter is to introduce the specifics of the genre category as it is understood in media studies (especially in the context of discourse theory, which is extremely important in this research) and to characterize the dominant genre of real news. This introduction is intended to present theoretical solutions from the field of linguistically oriented media studies that can be applied to the analysis of fake news as a genre. Such an analysis will provide an insight into the structural features of one of the most important tools of disinfromation, while also providing a theoretical background for the analyses carried out in the next two chapters.
