Abstract
The study represents an attempt of converging the elements of critical media literacy with the Habermasian theory of communicative competence. Universal pragmatics (validity claims) is being used as a theoretical base for the development of an analytical framework of critical media literacy, and the method is being empirically and experimentally tested through critical discourse analysis of the theme of the new Labour Law adoption in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Srpska. The analysis includes 32 media texts on the Klix, Buka and N1 news portals. Positive and negative claims about the adoption of the new Labour Law are being tested for comprehensibility, truth, sincerity and legitimacy.
