dc.description.abstractIn the research, I examine the issue of the influence of the mass media on a person’s consciousness from a psycholinguistic perspective. The core focus of my current research is hate speech in print media. The work was performed within an international project "Free voices: Promoting Independent Media in the Target Region" featuring the Crimean Human Rights Group. This paper presents an intermediate study of hate speech in the texts of online publications dated November 2020. To receive data I combined the author's method of psycholinguistic analysis with a help of a software bot. Our research consists of four stages. During the first stage, a team of journalists and volunteers with the help of a software bot carried out search query mining to find negative information. Later, applying the author's method of psycholinguistic analysis of the text, we scrutinized the material obtained to identify the type of hate speech, its techniques of influencing consciousness. The examples of hate speech were split into three types based on the use of specific linguistic and graphic tools: #1 direct hate speech; #2 indirect (hidden) hate speech; #3 manipulative hate speech. The evidence from this study intimates that the media tend to use examples of hate speech of the second and third types and avoid direct discrimination. In addition, there were mixed types: the combination of the second and third types and the combination of the first with the third or second type. I assumed the third and mixed#2-3 types of hate speech to be the methods of psycholinguistic manipulation. I have obtained comprehensive results proving that the majority of selected texts (75.7%) widely exploit methods of psycholinguistic manipulation. The results of this study will be used for a project report as well as to develop training for pre-journalist students and human rights defenders.en_US
