Language is originally heterogeneous and, consequently, the discourse is as well, considering that there is no original discourse, since all discourses come from other discourses that interact with and influence each other. The journalistic discourse, in turn, is no exception, on the contrary, it is possible to perceive several voices trespassing it, which proves its heterogeneous character. As a recurring resource that highlights the heterogeneity into the news text, among other uses, the quotes can mark the otherness, the discourse of others in the construction of texts in order to characterize distance between the utterer and the utterance of the words put in quotation marks to preserve the journalistic objectivity. Quotation marks are also used when the utterer wants to highlight a word or expression used in his discourse that is strange to his linguistic repertoire. It is also possible that the utterer wants to demonstrate that the word between quotation marks is being used in a different context than the usual one, giving it a different meaning. There is also the ironic aspect that can also be evidenced by the quotation marks. Regardless of the reasons the quotation marks are used, in most situations they feature a metaenunciative trait on the quoted words, creating an expectation of interpretation whose responsibility is attributed predominantly to the reader. Considering this metaenunciative character, the purpose of this work is to analyze the quotation marks in that aspect in the opinionated news texts called editorials. We will analyze 133 editorials from the newspapers Agora São Paulo and Folha de S. Paulo. Another of our goals is to observe how the editorials build up meanings within the texts, considering the profile of readers of each newspaper. To do so, we make use of the theory of Authier-Revuz, classifying the uses found for the non-coincidence of saying .
