The current research explores the CDA of the print media, with emphasis on the strategies regarding language manipulation through the analysis of the newspapers. This research hence documents and examines Pakistani and other global newspapers’ headlines, editorials, and news articles to understand how linguistic features, rhetorical
appeals, and framing strategies af ect reader perceptions. Utilizing the three-dimensional CDA model developed by Fairclough, the study investigates the power relations that are concealed by the text and ideologies manifested in discourse practices. The study further

This work advances knowledge regarding the part that media play in social construction and the consequences that language manipulation has on democracy.
