Los marcos de los noticieros televisivos y la segunda pantalla en Twitter y Facebook: Escándalo Pacogate en Chile

“…Más allá de los marcos temáticos o episódicos, el estudio de los encuadres mediáticos específicos de la corrupción cobra suma relevancia (Entman, 2012;Tagle, 2021;Tagle y Claro, 2018;Echeverría et al, 2021;Zamora y Marín Albaladejo, 2010;Park, 2012), considerando tanto sus implicaciones para el debate en la opinión pública como para la rendición de cuentas del poder en democracia (Christians et al, 2009).
