Abstract
This study explores the linguistic differences in political discourse between English and Russian newspapers. Drawing on frameworks from Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), comparative linguistics, and media discourse studies, it investigates how language reflects ideological positions, cultural traditions, and political structures. Through a comparative examination of lexical choices, rhetorical strategies, syntactic constructions, and pragmatic functions, the paper reveals how political language in both press traditions not only informs the public but also reinforces cultural values and political identities. The findings contribute to the understanding of cross-cultural political communication and offer implications for media literacy, translation studies, and intercultural competence.
