This article re-evaluates the relevance of the concept of gatekeeping in the 21st century. Sustained in the literature on this subject, it argues that, in an age marked by new media and digital journalism, a classical understanding of the concept of gatekeeper will narrow the scope of the study of journalism and its relationship with the public. Taking into account the predominant trends and lines of research, and analyzing practices and events that, from a political point of view, marked the most recent years, this article seeks to reflect upon new directions with civic value for the practice of journalism and on a reconfigured concept of the gatekeeper in the western word. It concludes by showing the normalization of the new media devices and their appropriateness to conventional values and practices of journalism.Este artigo reavalia a relevância do conceito de gatekeeping no século XXI. Sustentado na literatura sobre esta matéria, argumenta que, numa era marcada pelos novos media e pelo jornalismo digital, um entendimento clássico do conceito de gatekeeper cerceará o âmbito do estudo do jornalismo e da sua relação com os públicos. Deste modo, tomando em consideração as tendências e as linhas de investigação predominantes, e analisando práticas e acontecimentos que, de um ponto de vista político, marcaram os anos mais recentes, o artigo procura equacionar novos sentidos, com valor cívico, para a ação do jornalismo e para uma noção reconfigurada do gatekeeper no mundo ocidental. Conclui mostrando a normalização e a adequação dos novos dipositivos mediáticos a valores e práticas convencionais do jornalismo.Este artículo re-evalúa la relevancia del concepto de "gatekeeping" en el siglo XXI.
