Methodological Proposal for the Analysis of Specialised Crime Journalism in the Digital Ecosystem
Main Article Content
Abstract
The incorporation of media outlets into social networks has brought about significant changes—particularly in how information is presented, in stylistic choices, and in timing—resulting in new narrative forms that differ from traditional media practices. It is therefore necessary to analyse these shifts and their consequences, especially in relation to the quality and purpose of the information being delivered, with the aim of preserving journalism’s own informational status. This is all the more important given that social media has become the primary source of news for many users.
In this context, our objective is to present a methodology applicable to this evolving media environment, aimed at detecting excesses within the field of specialised crime journalism. Specifically, it focuses on identifying techniques related to sensationalism or alarmism, which distort information and contribute to a decline in the credibility and trustworthiness of the media outlet.
