La fe en el fact-checking: Una revisión crítica del movimiento global de verificación de información
Este trabajo es una revisión crítica del modelo construido alrededor del movimiento de verificación de desinformación desde dos perspectivas: metodológica, como protocolo global para cotejar discursos públicos con datos, y epistemológica, como institución destacada entre las soluciones contra la desinformación. A partir de 2016, se consolidó en estudios académicos y normas regulatorias un modelo para combatir la desinformación que adoptó el nombr…
Comunicación de riesgo: El miedo durante el confinamiento en España y Argentina
El miedo es una emoción dominante en situaciones de incertidumbre como la que representó la pandemia de covid-19. Por su alto impacto en el comportamiento de las personas, puede usarse como herramienta de manipulación para lograr el acatamiento de las medidas, especialmente disposiciones extraordinarias como el confinamiento domiciliario dispuesto en la primera etapa de la pandemia. Con este supuesto, se realizó un estudio exploratorio de las pre…

Politización de la desinformación en contextos de información devaluada. El caso Latinoamérica
La desinformación se aborda con perspectiva global, en la que se comparten diagnósticos y herramientas para contrarrestarla. Sin embargo, las fake news no operan de la misma manera en sociedades que tienen poco interés por la información y altas restricciones a la libertad de prensa que en democracias con garantías institucionales. Cuando la información está devaluada por la propaganda y versiones polarizadas de los eventos políticos, el concepto…
State disinformation: Emotions at the service of the cause
Disinformation is not only a phenomenon of modern democratic societies, but also a tool at the service of states. In the current communication ecosystem, politics and society interrelate in the face of a phenomenon characterised by multiple information channels and sources in which emotions now play a central role. In international relations, the expression of a state’s political will through charisma and populism are the chief aspects detected i…
Prácticas periodísticas en las conferencias de prensa presidenciales en Argentina
Las conferencias de prensa son una instancia pública que conecta fuentes oficiales de manera transparente con la prensa. En Argentina, el poder ejecutivo dejó de brindarlas regularmente desde el inicio de siglo y las dejó libradas a la discreción de cada administración. Esa circunstancia ofrece un caso para explorar el impacto de la ausencia de conferencias de prensa presidenciales en las prácticas periodísticas, con especial interés en el estilo…
Journalistic Voice
This chapter reports findings from the Journalistic Voice domain, describing how journalists around the world use different indicators of interventionism when reporting the news. In our analysis, we split the indicators into two main categories: those related to the content of a news item and those related to the style . Our findings show that professional autonomy does not necessarily point to more interventionism, while lack of autonomy does no…
Mapping Professional Roles in News Content Across 18 Countries
This chapter maps out general differences and similarities in journalistic role performance—specifically in relation to the presence of the interventionist, watchdog, loyal-facilitator, service, infotainment, and civic roles—across the press of the 18 countries analyzed in this book. Our data offer compelling evidence about the multilayered hybridization of journalistic cultures at the performative level, showing that the presence of professional…
Beyond Journalistic Norms
Chapter 12 critically discusses the main findings of the Journalistic Role Performance Project (JRP) , providing general and specific conclusions, as well as new insights, limitations, and potential lines of inquiry into the study of role performance cross-nationally.
Investigating the Gap between Newspaper Journalists’ Role Conceptions and Role Performance in Nine European, Asian, and Latin American Countries
Based on a standardized operationalization of the watchdog, civic, interventionist, loyal-facilitator, infotainment, and service roles, this study combines survey ( N = 643) and content analysis data ( N = 19,908) to explain gaps between newspaper journalists’ role conceptions and the performance of their press organizations in nine countries from Latin America, Western Europe, and Asia. Taking an institutional approach by focusing on institution…
Presidential Twitter in the face of Covid-19: Between populism and pop politics
This paper analyses the use of Twitter as a presidential communication channel during the first few months of the COVID-19 crisis. The aim is to determine how four recently elected presidents (those of Spain, Argentina, Mexico and Brazil) managed their political communication, and to explore the thesis that they resorted to populist messages during the first months of their terms in office. Using a qualitative methodology and the XL Node tool to …
Journalism and Civil Society: Key to Data Journalism in Argentina
As metáforas do jornalismo: Identidades implícitas para uma profissão mutante
As funções sociais do jornalismo como profissão mudam de acordo com quem constrói o seu significado. Quando a pesquisa acadêmica qualitativa analisa as notícias, o jornalismo é entendido como um produto textual. Quando um político acusa a imprensa de não refletir exatamente o que aconteceu, espera-se que o jornalismo seja um espelho da realidade social. Conteúdo, espelho, registro histórico, serviço público, cada um expressa diferentes maneiras d…
Detached or Interventionist? Comparing the Performance of Watchdog Journalism in Transitional, Advanced and Non-democratic Countries
This study proposes the interventionist and the detached orientations to watchdog journalism through the conceptual lens of journalistic role performance. Based on a content analysis of 33,640 news stories from sixty-four media outlets in eighteen countries, we measure and compare both orientations across different countries using three performative aspects of monitoring: intensity of scrutiny, voice of the scrutiny, and source of the event. Our …
Populist communication by digital means: Presidential Twitter in Latin America
In this paper, we analyze the uses of Twitter by populist presidents in contemporary Latin America in the context of the debates about whether populism truly represents a revolution in public communication – that is, overturning the traditional hierarchical model in favor of popular and participatory communication. In principle, Twitter makes it possible to promote the kind of interactive communication often praised in populist rhetoric. It offer…
In Media We Trust: Journalists and institutional trust perceptions in post-authoritarian and post-totalitarian countries
Trust is a societal value that is difficult to gain and easy to lose. This article deals with the levels of trust that journalists working in eight post-authoritarian and post-totalitarian countries (Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Czech Republic, Indonesia, Latvia, South Africa and Tanzania) have in various social institutions using data from the present Worlds of Journalism Study. In each country, results showed the level of trust in journalists…
Divided we stand
The debate about boundaries in journalism has gained renewed attention amid recent changes that have transformed the news industry and the conditions for journalistic practice. When boundaries between journalism and external actors have become fluid, it is important to reexamine whether journalists are able to draw and firm up boundaries. This chapter examines the situation of blurred boundaries in contemporary Argentinian journalism. People argu…
Entre a lei de Thirlwall e a hipótese Prebisch-Singer: Uma avaliação da dinâmica dos termos de troca em um modelo de crescimento com restrição no Balanço de Pagamentos
Os modelos de crescimento com restrição no balanço de pagamentos (BOPC) podem ser utilizados para capturar importantes insights tanto da tradição keynesiana quanto estruturalista do pensamento econômico. Sugerimos que a Lei de Thirlwall corresponde a uma derivação matemática da regra de Prebisch. Dessa forma, este trabalho se propõe a estreitar a relação entre a Lei de Thirlwall e o pensamento cepalino por meio da inclusão, na primeira, de um com…

Argentine case shows how Argentine Presidential Press Office increasingly reduced the access to public information and official sources. This paper reviews the context for the relationship between journalists and presidential sources in Argentina in order to analyze the influence of the public off…
