Sažetak
According to the 2011 population census 16, 975 Roma people live in Croatia, but their estimated number ranges from 30, 000 to 40, 000. Their manifold marginalization in economic, spatial and political aspects (Šućur 2000) is reflected and partially constructed by mainstream media discourse. In such circumstances, the role of minorities’ media is of great importance. It can facilitate inclusion and help to preserve the essential linguistic, cultural and identity elements (Petričušić 2010: 47), but might also contribute to marginalization through limited representation of the minorities and their identification with a restricted number of genres and themes (Devereux 2007: 175). This paper studies the minority media as a public discourse frame for linguistic identity construction. Volumes of the Roma minority magazine Romano Čaćipe (Roma Truth) served as a corpus for the extraction of headlines which, as a distinct sub-genre in the overall media discourse (Bell 1991), are analyzed at a lexical, phraseological, semantic and pragmatic level. The findings indicate some of the features of minority- constructed discourse, as well as the nature of minority relations towards the mainstream discourse and, in a way, uncover a fragment of what is the Roma truth.
