He says, of course, such an analysis does not necessarily guarantee the identification of the author of a distorted, nameless, or fake or pseudonymous document. In his opinion, the results of linguistic analysis can play a significant role in determining and proving the author of the document by providing evidence, but it cannot identify other possible authors. acquit those who could have been involved in falsifying the document. The relevance of the research is in the constant interest in the concept of discourse in linguistic science, in identifying the characteristic features of its content. The subject of consideration is “the language in the media format”, that is, the language, the features of which are motivated by its functioning in the media environment, in the conditions of “forced mediatization” of all spheres of life and society.

Based on the analysis of articles, it was concluded that the main features of medical terminology in socio-political texts include the implementation of expressive, evaluative and attractive functions.
