Jornalismo, cidadania e questões sociais em uma perspectiva midiática

Abstract

This study presents a reflection on journalism, citizenship, power and politics in Brazil, within the perspective that the media discourse and especially the discourse of journalism presents itself as a different process of content production and transmission. The analysis is based on a critical reading of the media and involves a consideration of journalism and its practical rationality, and its relationship with new communication and information technologies. The work also brings a reflection on the studies of journalism, its theories, epistemologies and methods, seeking to understand its importance and capillary relations of influence and power that it develops with contemporary society.
