eng	Direct Forms of Presentation in the Discourse of Newspaper Reports	The presence of language (or thought) of others has become an indispensable part of journalistic writing. The paper is concerned with the use of direct forms of presentation in the discourse of British broadsheet newspaper reports. Based on the analysis of authentic data, it will show the frequency of occurrence of the most commonly occurring types, such as typical direct forms, free direct forms and so-called mixed forms, i.e. the combination of direct and indirect forms. The paper will cover direct forms on speech, writing and thought scales, the tendencies in their employment and possible functional/pragmatic relationship between them.	reported language; direct forms of presentation; speech, writing and thought; newspaper reports; broadsheets
