Summary/Abstract: Mass media are active participants of the political and economic processes, and therefore have an impact on the formation of meanings and opinions. Media are represented as a system of stereotypes of mass consciousness which are known as ‘ideologemes’. One of the most widespread and effective forms of the concealed influence on the conciseness of the audience is a manipulation with terms and images. Influence, which advisedly misleads the recipient, appears on three different levels: individual, group and mass. Media of the authoritarian and, especially, totalitarian regimes have much more influence on the free choice of civic position, differentiation of social groups, their confrontation and struggle.
