The aim of this article is examine the characteristics of newsrooms' organization of Catalan local media as a part of media convergence. Data was obtained from a survey distributed among media members of the Catalan Association of Local Newspapers, with a response rate of 45%, and 19 in-depth interviews with journalists and managers of 8 media groups. Companies were selected taking into account a wide range of variables: geographical distribution, periodicity, circulation, etc. Results show media convergence does not mean newsroom integration, but media groups usually develop some kind of integrated production. Formulas developed by media are diverse, with different levels of integration.

Introducción: Este artículo explora los nuevos profesionales que las empresas periodísticas locales están incorporando en un ecosistema en el que las plataformas digitales, principalmente Google y Facebook, cada vez tienen mayor peso como canales de distribución de los contenidos. Metodología: El objeto de estudio, en el marco del periodismo político, son 12 medios de proximidad catalanes escogidos en función de criterios de diversidad mediática y distribución geográfica. Se han realizado entrevistas en profundidad semi-estructuradas a 24 profesionales, desde editores hasta redactores pasando por gestores de redes sociales. Resultados: Se demuestra que las empresas incorporan nuevos perfiles para el periodismo político. Se enumeran nueve nuevos perfiles profesionales; aunque sólo tres de ellos, por el momento, son perfiles que las empresas periodísticas están contratando. Conclusiones: Las tareas asociadas a la distribución de contenidos, más propias de los profesionales de las relaciones públicas, ahora también recaen en los periodistas.
