Zamieszki, bitwa czy zryw przeciwko prezydentowi? Paski tytułujące wiadomości w telewizyjnych serwisach informacyjnych na przykładzie relacjonowania protestów pracowników transportu we Francji z przełomu 2018 i 2019 roku
Riots, a battle or an uprising against the president? Tickers in TV information services, as exemplified by reporting protests of transport workers in France at the turn of 2018 and 2019

Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to tickers concerning the strikes of transport employees in France. The analysis of the choice of words which were used to describe various aspects of the events in four TV channels proves that after familiarising oneself with a short announcement of a particular piece of reporter’s material, the same facts could be interpreted in different ways, depending on the author. This function of tickers is additionally strengthened by the use of stylistic devices, especially metaphors. Investigating the corpora has also revealed that one of the channels has consciously created a coherent message and selected particular keyewords.
