The discussions presented in this article are based on the Foucauldian Discursive Studies. In this respect, we seek to understand how the raped woman is objectified in texts from the journalistic media. The discussions aim at questioning how the subject and her body gain visibility in journalistic sentences that refer to rape against women. Here, the notions of will to truth and power help understand the violence committed against the subject, body, and discourse; the infinitesimal mechanisms of power; and the truths that are seen as legitimate and end up resulting in the sentence of the own victims. The main thread of the analysis includes a discussion about rape as a mechanism of domination. Next, we present the theoretical-analytical procedures that support the reflections on the subject, truth, and power. Finally, an analysis is carried out to understand how the news about raped women produces an effect of blaming these victims.
