In recent years in Brazil, there has been growing interest in questions related to reading, literacy and all the social changes resulting from these practices in the field of critical linguistics. There is, however, still a huge field to be exploited in this area. Reading and writing are the basis for making a critical reading of the world, and the process of the awareness of citizen s rights and duties starts from reading and writing. According to Fowler (1991), all aspects of linguistic structure (lexical decisions, syntactic choices, etc) contain ideological meaning. All institutions are socially, economically and politically located, and anything that is either said or written about the world is made from a particular ideological position. The present study makes a critical textual analysis of a newspaper editorial from the Folha de São Paulo, Endless Outrages , published on September 19th, 2006, using Halliday s Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and the following resources and discursive strategies: (a) the concepts of phallacy and enthymeme presented by Lauerbach (2007); (b) information smuggling' proposed by Luchjenbroers & Aldridge, (2007); (c) frames according to Bednarek (2005); (d) crypto-argumentation by Kitis, E. & Milapides, M. (1996), (e) the dog-whistle strategy, Coffin & O Halloran (2006) and (f) reported discourse (LAUERBACH, 2006). The findings suggest that the text, using such resources and strategies, aims at convincing the reader, in an implied way, to accept the fact that the President was to blame for the events described, without, however, impairing the newspaper s impartiality
