The paper we propose is an attempt argument of how the media contributes to the public opinion by establishing and promoting ideologies through manipulative practices subservient of some interests. Taking as its starting point the idea that media influence increasingly larger social relations become indispensable at least in terms of information management in the social field, the study seeks to highlight how media contribute to social representations promoting ideologies that structure opinions and valuations in the social field. A defining role in this lies the use of language, discourse is understood as a reflection of power relations, due to the fact that any communication situation is influenced by power structures that speakers are placed conventional or not.
