Description
  • One of the topics which received much attention in the British media in 2004 was the appearance of a new football star at the Euro 2004 Championship in Portugal: Wayne Rooney. As the 18-year-old player was catapulted, to paraphrase one of the headlines, from %22zero%22 to %22hero%22 almost overnight, the media had to find ways of turning the little known teenager into a household name. One of the strategies adopted by the popular press was to appropriate Rooney by using nicknames and by transforming many common nouns to include references to him, the latter achieved by using the affix Roo to form countless blends. In this way, he turned %22heroo%22 from a %22zeroo%22. This article documents some of the forms of reference which were used in the British popular press (mainly the Sun and the Daily Mirror newspapers) in connection with Wayne Rooney. Such forms of reference are placed within the framework of word-play: a creative manipulation of linguistic forms.
