Summary/Abstract: The article shows that today, the language of the media is no more a correct, standard language. For more expressivity, the journalists often use informal structures, and also they confuse terms. In the Romanian newspapers, the language makes no difference between the yellow press and the serious press. The articles are full of popular language, and often contain logical and grammatical mistakes and slang. The linguists tried to give some reasons to explain the use and the abuse of the colloquial language.
