Resumo
Violence and public security are daily approached by mass communication vehicles.
Considering violence a symbolic power, the journalists’ field can either meet or diverge
from the public security operators’ field. The objective of this study is to identify the
possible relations between those two fields concerning urban violence. This work also tries
to investigate whether the information control about what is violence becomes an object of
tension between the fields. In order to verify it, qualitative data were gathered through the
analysis of texts from the column Distrito Zero, published on Diário da Manhã newspaper.
The mentioned analysis was crossed with semi-structured interviews with civil and military
policemen of Goiás, Brazil. This research identified similarities and differences in the way
to represent violence and public security, proving that tension between the fields is due to
the necessity of control about what should be considered violent.
