Language transfer (from television to Internet) in political communications

The aim of this paper is to show that modern media are not totally independent of the older media and that there is, specifically, a kind of language transfer from older media such as television to the modern ones. Although Internet users enjoy relatively more freedom in the virtual reality public domains compared with real public domains, their political communications in negotiation rooms are not independent of the linguistic structures of the previous media such as television. On the other hand, Internet users use the transfer of political discourse from television to Internet as a means to seek political identity.
