This study is purely designed to investigate linguistically different ways in which systems of meaning are constructed in DAWN news to represent forced conversion and marriage cases in Pakistan. This study selected the qualitative method and Van Dijk's concept of text structure. The corpus involved online DAWN news reporting; published on June 15, 2021. The results indicate that discourse is the main instrument through which ideology is constructed in a Pakistani newspaper. The lexical choices refer to the dichotomy of US and THEM where Christians are considered out-group and associated with negative representation (religion & country). The macrostructure analysis refers to the theme of religious conflict between Muslims and Christians. The findings of the superstructure are that the order of news is systematically ordered in order to convey the message. Furthermore, linguistics structure shows that news texts used rhetoric strategies to influence the interpretation of the story among the readers.
