O jornalismo em novos territórios conceituais: internet, midiatização e a reconfiguração dos sentidos midiáticos

Abstract

This thesis examines the changes that have been occurring in the journalistic field with regards its connection to other systems. The research observes what these new conceptual fields represent from a theoretical reflection of the mediatization phenomenon, and through an empirical study of two events known as "The scandal of arbitration" and "Gol's accident", which generated the content for this analysis. The work is structured in three parts: the scenario development, in which the midiatization is set; the complexity of this scenario; and finally, the process of midiatization. We understand that this process ends by affecting its own mechanisms, in this case, the journalistic ones, by mediatizing them. Forms and processes that have been developing throughout the last 300 years of journalistic evolution are becoming more complex and require new interpretations.
