A mapping of Brazilian research on digital ecosystems and journalism is presented, based on groups registered in the CNPq directory since 1990. Both the Postgraduate Programs in Communication and their lines of research focused on Journalism, as well as the three stricto sensu postgraduate programs in Journalism, include groups concerned with the scientific and practical development of journalism via studies on the reconfiguration of journalistic processes, based on technological and communication transformations. The objective of the article is through a bibliometric survey to expose the cartography of the groups and their characteristics. An increase in the creation of groups was observed from the 2000s onwards, 36 groups, and only two groups until the end of the 20th century. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this text is both to reflect on how hegemonic communication, especially in television journalism, relates to the indigenous issue, and to imagine possibilities of decolonizing media representations of indigenous population by overcoming the Eurocentric view. Notably, we consider it relevant to discuss the journalistic approach on the topic and the necessary surpassing of the paradigm that indigenous people are not autonomous individuals in order for them to become communicational citizens. The decolonial shift caused by self-representation of indigenous peoples is highlighted as fundamental for the transformation of these relations and for greater indigenous protagonism in telejournalism.

This article, which is part of the debate on Communication and Environment, analyses reasons for the scarce coverage, with a predominantly economic bias, on wind energy produced by the main potiguar newspaper Tribuna do Norte, between January 2003 and January 2004. This period was a milestone for media planning on the topic due to social, economic, and environmental expectations related to the opening of the first wind farm in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, currently the largest producer of this type of energy in Brazil. The State was moving towards production of sustainable energy, which is why we sought to understand the context in which the theme gained visibility due to its environmental relevance for the country. The methodological path chosen was based on Critical Discourse Analysis (FAIRCLOUGH, 1989, 1995, 2001), represented by "Discursive Practice" and "Sociocultural Practice". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Journalism and literature have always maintained a close relationship. While some literary works resemble the journalistic style of reporting on the present, some written reports are true literary works thanks to a narrative that exceeds the techniques of conventional journalism. It is within this framework that one can talk about literary journalism, journalism written by journalists (and not journalism written by writers or about journalists), which, following the rules and requirements that define the profession, makes room for the use of techniques typically associated with literature. Portugal has a long literary journalism history, and journalists who are distinguished by this style. This study seeks to offer a diachronic view of Portuguese literary journalism through an analysis of its development, from the end of the 19th century and across the First Republic, the Estado Novo, after April 25, to the present day. At the same time, we will consider different examples of international literary journalism to establish a possible definition for the topic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to systematize the challenges that advertising professionals face in a field that demands constant updates and continues to change. We start from a bibliographic analysis, from authors in the field of advertising, and we make use of the categories proposed by Canavilhas (2015), which points out the challenges for journalism professionals. We seek to investigate tensions from the following question: what are the main contemporary challenges that professionals face in the field of advertising and what are the solutions that the market has been finding to face these obstacles? We bring as indications of response to this complex problem, 16 contemporary challenges in advertising divided into four categories: professional, technological, economic and social challenges.

This article defends the view that the most part of the world’s population is not a source of traditional journalistic text in the mass media. The media is leaded by a marketing orientation that limits the choices for advertisers and the economic, political and/or intellectual powers. It is proposed, therefore, as reportage, not journalistic story, the text, resulting from interview, outside from the pyramid formats, to bring to light the singularities from life and doings of people who are not in the actual journalism. It can say three main points for the proposal: journalism must stand a position; the plural sources should be the co-producer of the report; and journalism must to be reconsidered under the social perspective. To support the proposal, is used Genro Filho (1987), Tavares (2004 ), Oliveira (2011 ), Habermas (1984 ) and others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper outlines the newspapers' and journalists' image and characteristics as scketched in three news manuals published from 1964-1979 by Edições de Ouro, a popular press. Aimed to a general public, it sketches some popular representations of journalism at that time. Main findings suggests that (1) journalism was shown as a 'mission', not as a regular profession; (2) journalists were portraied as people of 'respect' and 'prestige' and (3) there is a general grimness towards journalism courses, viewed, at its best, as futile. These findings are discussed against a background of the history and the dinamics of the journalism field and communication research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Despite being a traditional poetic form, of oriental and literally millennial origin, haiku has gradually acquired new forms after it arrived in Brazil, about a century ago. Among several Brazilian writers, the role of the writer Millôr Fernandes can be highlighted in the process of development of a "Brazilian way" of composing haiku, including generous and often simultaneous doses of good humor and criticism. In 2020, with the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic and under a federal government heavily criticized for its performance in the areas of Health and Education, two university professors from the region of Vale do Paraíba decided to register the day-to-day life of the pandemic in Brazil by haiku, inaugurating a project informally named "Haikaus", in progress since March 2021. In this work, we discuss the characteristics and potentialities of this form of recording at a single chronic and critical time of the recent history of our country, presenting for this a sample of the haikais produced in this context, accompanied by evaluation of the themes addressed, with the construction of a cloud of words to facilitate visual analysis.

This article brings the development experience of the newspaper Sertão Transviado, the journalistc production of the project "Sertão Transviado: outros Cariris", linked to the Extension and Culture Deans of the Federal University of Cariri (UFCA) during the years 2016 to 2018. Beside from the literature review of the theories of journalism, we trace the notion of "performative journalism" in the sense of perceiving new models of the modality in depth and subjectivity through the investigation, narration, hierarchization and editing of the guidelines focused on the performances and the daily lives of the movement's shifted landscapes LGBTQIA+ and queer activism in the interior of Cariri, Ceará.

The article discusses the changes in TV journalism with the inclusion of comments from social networks on local news on Rede Globo, most notably SP1 in São Paulo. It analyzes the new spaces and roles of the viewer in the news environment through three broadcasts of SP1 from the beginning of July 2017. With these reports, the study aims to understand the representation of the public in journalistic narratives taken as a reference for the construction of the imaginary about São Paulo. It also intends to analyze the context of "mediatization" and reconfiguration of the "visibility" of the public in the news. Based on this, it proposes strategies for creating a critical discourse analysis and understanding the mechanisms of inclusion of the Internet user in the news. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the period of social isolation, carried out due to the coronavirus pandemic, the audience of radio stations in Brazil increased. Once again, the means of communication-based on simplicity and low cost showed efficiency as a source of services, information, and entertainment. This article discusses the evolution of radio over a century. From the centerpiece in the homerooms, through mobility and instantaneous, to the arrival of communication in podcasts. To prepare radio professionals, communication schools need to be attentive to technological changes and provide students with theoretical and practical knowledge about the production of audio content. As a methodology, a bibliographic review on the topic was made, in addition to the description of the case study on teaching radio journalism at a Communication Faculty. As main results, we highlight that the radio maintains a vast relevance as a low-cost medium and an extensive audience, being that at this moment the new technologies allow the exploration of new formats. It is also noteworthy that radio is no longer a communication vehicle of regional scope - currently, radio production has a global reach, likewise, it is marked by elements such as interactivity, multilateralism, portability, mobility, and individualized access and consumption.

This article problematizes the institutionalization of the so-called "mainstream press" in Brazil, conceived as a "fourth power," between the dictatorship and democracy. The analysis will be based on the newspapers Folha de S. Paulo and O Globo, two companies that, from the authoritarian modernization they underwent during the dictatorship, to their position as incisive agents in the process of redemocratization, have gone through processes often ambiguous and tortuous. To this end, the text intends to identify, at some specific moments in the history of these newspapers, characteristics that allow us to configure the search for an authority among the actors in the foreground of a scene of political representation, which is crucial to understanding how newspapers define and legitimize their identities in and over time.

This paper aims to verify how the concept of ethos in the area of communication is used. For this, we carry out quantitative and qualitative analyzes of scientific articles, published between 2007 and 2017 in national scientific journals Qualis A2 and B1, that use the term in its content. As a result, it was possible to perceive that most of the time the concept is used without theoretical foundation and that its application, even when theoretically justified, is carried out diffusely, not offering unicity for a more uniform application of communication research.

This article analyzes how Brazilian undergraduate courses in Journalism have incorporated the education for citizenship advocated in the new National Curricular Guidelines. For this purpose, we carried out an exploratory research based on Pedagogical Projects of 28 public universities and identified the strategies adopted in each Institution of Higher Education to educate journalists as agents of the citizenship, and this considering the changes of the journalist's role facing his current challenges, which transcend the ethics of the profession and place access to information and communication as social rights.

Based on the assumption that consumption was historically treated by the Brazilian press as a typically female issue throughout most of the 20th century, the purpose of this article is to analyze some of the historical aspects that mark the construction of the consumer-man in the Brazilian press. In other words, the objective is to map some of the discursive aspects from which the idea of man-consumer in Brazilian journalism was developed, in its differential relation with the stereotypical representation of female consumption. For this, a search for keywords in the Journal Digital Collection of the National Library was made to find texts that correlate the terms "man" and "shopping" and we applied the methodology of Critical Discourse Analysis. From the obtained data, it was possible to infer that the discursive construction of the manconsumer in the press passed through historically demarcated representational phases that show the interrelations between representational practices and sexual policies that articulate issues of gender with those of consumption.

The Cultural Industry emergence at the turn of twentieth century was a fundamental rupture with the old global system of culture. These dramatic changes, within the framework of the symbolic production, bring about transformations of great magnitude occurred in the political and economic spheres as well as in power and hegemony relations in world scope. The same happens at the turn of the 21st century with the transition from the economy of cultural industries to the economy of the Internet and social network sites. This paper aims to retake the critical perspective developed by the author in the construction of a Marxist theory of communication to discuss the meaning of the current transition with an emphasis on the press.

The expansion of the internet and the emergence of Information and Communication Technologies - ICTs - showed the need to think of new products for Brazilian television. The challenges of this new mode of communication entail three strands of debate in academic, governmental and corporate spheres: technology; politics and the creation of symbolic goods (content), addressing the norms of diffusion; and a standardization policy. The impact on the habit and consumption of the television viewer due to the inevitable choice may influence the viewer' s daily life. One change is the increase in the number of online hours per day. The speed of information and the search for news has made the individual more dependent on the internet, and the channels of communication follow it. It is there that the players are interacting with a network of connections and this field provides feedback through content (text or audiovisual) and exchanges between the collaborating agents.

Communication has experienced significant changes, not only in the structural field but also in terms of the language, the circulation flows and the consumption and production platforms. In this scenario, mobile devices have become the tools most commonly used for such tasks, as shown in several studies on the topic. Corroborating this, society assumes the role of content producer and consumer, which modifies the hierarchy of information production. Based on the preliminary results of a research funded by the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), this paper reflects on the society we live in today, which is increasingly mobile and participatory. With the presentation of this paper, it is expected that further research on the topic is developed in order to understand this new reality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores the notion of media witnessing as a figure of historicity in three complementary reflexive movements. First, key elements of studies on media witnessing are recovered. Then, the concepts of historicity and figure are reviewed in order to articulate them with that of media testimony. Finally, we observe some important relations in the uses of the word testimony to apprehend, at least in part, its implications as heuristic operator in communication studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Being a social construction of reality, news reproduce power structures and promote both visibility and shadow areas. In this study, we proposed to look into the nurses' (in)visibility within the media public space promoted by the Portuguese press in their health news. Hence, we analyzed almost 7000 health news published in 2012 and 2013 in six National newspapers. We noticed that nurses rarely become health news sources, while doctors are the most wanted specialists. Journalists' choices do not reflect the country's reality, since nurses are a bigger professional group than doctors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we investigate how the discursive representation of a same social fact, and the main social actors involved in it, is presented in different text genres, for example, news report, editorial, opinion article, and reader's letter. Our aim is to investigate whether there are differences in the choices made to represent the same fact and how the main social actor is represented in these genres, as well as the reasons underlying these differences and their consequences. To do this, we selected texts that address the death of Michael Jackson, which are analyzed based on the assumptions of Critical Discourse Analysis and on van Leeuwen's (1997) proposal to the study of the social actor representation. The analysis revealed that, in all genres, the representation of active and personal mode, as well as the specific classification, is dominant. Also, in genres that represent journalist and company cores, nomination is prevalent, whereas in genres that represent collaborator and reader cores, classification is dominant. Moreover, classification by valuation is also prevalent, which greatly corroborates the production of a mixture in the representation of social actor Michael Jackson. This mixture is also marked by means of overt intertextuality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

I found in this paper an excellent opportunity to reflect one more time concerning some experiences during my master's degree, a study about newsmaking made in a news program of a big Brazilian company of media. Since the empirical phase I have been thinking of writing about some methodological issues and experiences as a researcher. Having my formation in the Communication area and having supported my methodological procedures in ethnography, Anthropological method par excellence, has already instigated several issues that were more difficultly faced, on and off the fieldwork. But also the choice of investigate symbolic processes present in the news production, especially guided by concepts originated from gender and feminist studies, caused many other challenges, for the research and for the researcher. Four years passed the field research experience, I restore this desire and dare to share here a first look about this questions and their results in my formation, as well as in the study that I developed.

The paper is a summary of the discussion of the results of reception research with freelance journalists of the city of São Paulo. The theoretical-methodological approach adopted relates reception studies, from the field of communication, with the approach ergological, from the field of philosophy. From the binomial Communication and Work, we consider the world of work as a central mediation of communication. At the reception, when talking about the work of 'other', the journalists are confronted with their own work and reveal, in discourse, the values and the dramas of real activity of communication and work [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It has already been several decades since the Theory of Communication, as well as other important theory perspectives, acknowledges the subjective nature of the message receiver. However, although each person perceives information in a different way, the public - or the audience, as preferred by Aristotle - continues behaving as a big homogeneous mass. If each person perceives information differently, how could the Mass Media (MCM) control the agenda of public debate? Nonetheless, this occurs very often and it is the object of study for Pierre Bordieu (1992) with his theory about the habitus of communication. This discussion focuses on the ways of textual production for the journalistic genre of television as a way of constructing meaning for a larger number of TV viewers. Yet, as a hypothesis, we rely on the idea that this information is not sufficient for a deeper reflection on the presented issues. Thus, we compare the news broadcasted by Jornal Nacional da Rede Globo de Televisão about "FIFA World Cup" on the 16 of June, 2011 with the news televised by other media in the same period.

There is a prominent subject in contemporary journalism. A growing set of stories deal, under the rubric of "services", with the issue of quality of life, discussing the well-being in current societies. Facing this context, this article aims at refl ecting on this topic through the lenses of magazine journalism. The paper sheds light on the way this type of information simultaneously responds to certain social demands and nurtures them. The discussion addresses historical questions and focuses on the dialogue between social issues and journalistic production, thus disclosing features of the magazine. It conceives of magazines as a specifi c medium of communication, which elaborates, through segmented publications, an editorial construct in consonance with a contemporary model of well-being.

The current communicational process experiences a revolution in both the structural fields and those of the languages. Such changes are the result of communication behaviors and contributions offered to contemporary society, such as social networking and mobility. However, communication has not fully embraced these changes, despite of studies related to the transmedia storytelling. This paper is a reflective and investigative discussion about transmedia strorytelling as social language either in fiction and journalism. Hopefully, this study may also provide insights to new researches regarding this subject. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the Information Age, the relation between the receptor and the mass media has changed. New technologies have especially intensified this manifestation of the information's receptor. In journalism, not only the production of private media (such as blogs) is increasing, but also the participation in the traditional media. The organizations are not oblivious to this outside world, because their workers interact outside the company. The objective of this article is show the receptor of the internal communication as a possible producer of information and contents, mainly through the use of the social media. For such exploratory analysis, literature review was performed. specialists in organizational communication were also interviewed about the possibility of transposing the participative communication to the corporate media.

The competition for places among the printed media as revealed in self-referential discourse. In the light of the context of mediatization, the article attempts to identify the places disputed by the printed media of Santa Maria, state of Rio Grande do Sul, by examining the strategies of production of meaning in the self-referential discourse of the newspapers, A Razão and Diário de Santa Maria during the municipal electoral campaign in 2008. For that purpose, it uses the French Discourse Analysis as a theoretical and methodological reference. On the basis of this analysis, the authors found that by using self-referential strategies the newspapers compete for the position of legitimate enunciators in mediatized society and that the changes in society lead to a transformation of the enunciator's place in journalism. Thus, the article points to the need for rethinking this self-referential logic of present journalism so that the latter assumes the role of a democratic agent in the mediatized public space.

The journalism has experienced significant changes both in the field of choice of content and in form to communicate the same by new languages or recovered from their origins. However, such communication forms are not homogeneous, despite the concepts of distributed global village. This article presents a study on content and language of international publishing of newspaper Folha de S. Paulo and El Pais, in their printed versions and online, published between February 25 and 02 March 2008. It is expected, with the result of this research, provide greater reflection on the language and content currently used by these publications and offer subsidies for future research on the subject.

Purpose: to examine viewers' perception on television newscaster performance before and after speech-language intervention. Methods: six university station newscasters were videotaped reading while pretending to be in a news-broadcasting situation. They were then subjected to a speech-language program. The program consisted of four meetings, each lasting two hours and thirty minutes. After the end of the program, the journalists were videotaped for a second time, under the same conditions as before the beginning of the intervention. The recorded pre and post-program material was randomly edited and the order of appearances determined by an intra-subject draw. Subsequently, the edited material was shown to 50 adult viewers, who were asked to provide their opinion on each individual's pre and post-program performance. Results: it was perceived that, in the viewers' opinions, four of the six subjects showed a statistically significant viewer preference for the post-intervention recording. Conclusion: the majority of the analyzed newscasters had statistically significant percentages of viewer preferences for the post-intervention recording, demonstrating the positive effects of the speech-language intervention.
