The aim of this study is to examine how implicit persuasion and argumentation occurr in editorials published in the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo regarding texture: its formation through the textual modes, verification of how assessment is built, analysis of rhetorical devices and application of Toulmin s rhetorical model of argumentation. I analyze three editorials published between August and September 2010, during the months that preceded the presidential election. Because of their social relevance, texts that addressed the candidacy of Rousseff were chosen. The analysis of the editorial is organized into four parts. First text structure is classified using representational modes proposed by Reynolds (2000). Secondly, I analyze personnel (evaluative) and interactional function (roles and mode), as proposed by Halliday (1994), Martin (2000) and Thompson and Thetela (1995). Thirdly, I analyze the use of rhetorical devices like voices (WAUGH, 1995), intersubjectivity (KÄRKKÄINEN, 2006), dog whistle politics (COFFIN; O HALLORAN, 2006) and smuggling of information (LUCHJENBROERS; ALDRIDGE, 2007). Lastly, I analyze the subfunctions of argument (REYNOLDS, 2000) and validation of the arguments (TOULMIN, 1958). Besides these authors, directly related to methodology, I use as reference Kitis and Milapides (1997), about crypto-argumentation, Fowler (1987) on critical linguistics, among others. The editorial analysis showed that ASSERTIONS do not arise at the beginning of the text. In general, the first few paragraphs have PREDICTION and HYPOTHESISING. Also, the arguments rely on the descriptions and narratives and voices. Modalized and implicit evaluations are quite frequent, often under the form of smuggling of information and dog whistle and associated with the phenomenon of logogenesis to build negative Appreciations or Judgements
