This book investigates how binary oppositions are constructed discursively and the potential ideological repercussions of their usage in news reports in the British press. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe focus is particularly on the positive presentation of groups and individuals subsumed under the first person plural pronouns 'us' and 'we', and the simultaneous marginalization of groups designated as 'they' or 'them'.
