Abstract
The Editorial Comment of news print is highly significant for the negotiation of meaning. This is made possible through linguistic features that characterise the comments, one of which is the lexical cohesive ties that provide a distinct linguistic connection in the text. The analysis of selected editorial comments is based on Halliday’s and Hasan’s (1976) Lexical Cohesion Theory. The study therefore investigates the social functions of the observed lexical devices in the editorial comments in order to demonstrate how meanings are being foregrounded in the editorial comments of the news print.
