Summary/Abstract: Nowadays the main purpose of online media is to attract the attention of readers. There is competition between different media. They invent retention mechanisms. The journalistic style uses a large number of style figures. All these style figures are intended to trivialize or dramatize the information and make it exceptional. When the desire to please the readers outweighs that of informing, objectivity and sometimes the truth are threatened.
