Annotation

This article explores how Greek journalists develop dialogical networks containing parliamentary discourse and newspaper articles through the reproduction of extracts from MP's speeches. Rather than reporting on the actual parliamentary work, Greek journalists usually try to develop and/or preserve solidarity between readers and newspapers of matching political and ideological orientations.
