“…Among the challenges facing journalism in terms of regaining control over the agenda is the development of professional and academic specialisation in digital verification. Work on these routines has already commenced in newsrooms (Montemayor Rodríguez and García Jiménez 2021).…”

This article focuses on the role of information disorders in media coverage of cancer as a growing public health problem on both sides of the Atlantic. Taking the examples of Chile and Spain, we analysed news (n = 5522) published by major digital newspaper outlets in both countries between 2020 and 2022 to explore the elements of contextual information disorders, the over- and/or under-representation of mentions of sources and actors, and major latent topics in both journalistic systems. To achieve these objectives, we employed topic modelling and coherence techniques. The results revealed a high number of references to institutional, administrative, and political sources and actors, followed by mentions of issuers of strategic communication and, less frequently, patients’ associations. The discourses differed in their underlying topics, with risk factors and psycho-social factors being the most frequently addressed in the Spanish press and geo-political and institutional health contexts being the most frequently mentioned in the Chilean press. The topic of advances in research, however, was common in both journalistic systems. This article closes by identifying future challenges in health communication.

“…La presente investigación pretendía conocer las rutinas profesionales y el nivel de formación de los fact-checkers españoles vinculados a la verificación de informaciones, lo que, a su vez, serviría para paliar, al menos parcialmente, la escasez de estudios centrados en el fact-checking hispanohablante (cf. Montemayor-Rodríguez & García-Jiménez, 2021;Moreno-Gil et al, 2021;Herrero & Herrera-Damas, 2021a, 2021bMartín-Neira et al, 2023;Rodríguez-Pérez et al, 2023). Atendiendo a los hábitos profesionales de los periodistas a los que atendía el primer objetivo (O1), los resultados evidencian cierta disparidad en cuanto al tiempo dedicado a la tarea de chequeo, si bien varía sustancialmente dependiendo de la temática de la información.…”

Como variante de la verificación periodística tradicional, en los últimos años ha surgido el fact-checking, caracterizado por la relevancia del componente digital en el proceso de contraste de la información. Partiendo de esto, el propósito fundamental de esta investigación estriba en conocer las rutinas profesionales y el nivel de capacitación en verificación de los fact-checkers españoles. Para ello, se distribuyó entre mayo y junio de 2023 un cuestionario compuesto por 29 preguntas a los periodistas de las plataformas de verificación españolas (n=18). Los resultados evidencian el protagonismo de la verificación en la organización temporal en el trabajo periodístico, si bien Política, Economía y Sanidad son las áreas informativas que implican una mayor exigencia y, por tanto, mayor dedicación. El grueso de los encuestados considera que la calidad del fact-checking sería mayor si tuvieran menos carga de trabajo. Para ese proceso, se nutren principalmente de fuentes académicas y gubernamentales, que son, a su vez, a las que otorgan mayor fiabilidad. A esto habría que añadir la creciente importancia de las herramientas digitales, si bien la variedad de estas es aún moderada, lo que se podría achacar fundamentalmente a la escasa formación específica sobre verificación que han recibido.

“…Em um cenário mediático em transformação, em que é crescente a desconfiança dos cidadãos nos media, os jornalistas tomaram consciência sobre as necessidades e as possibilidades de resistir, tornando-se defensores de seu campo (Jaakkola, 2022). Estudos mostram que os jornalistas estão preocupados com o fenómeno da desinformação e que percebem que a circulação de desinformação nas redes sociais modifica suas rotinas profissionais (Schapals & Bruns, 2022;Rodríguez & Jiménez, 2021). Ao mesmo tempo, eles passaram a implementar medidas para proteger e legitimar a profissão, incluindo a reafirmação discursiva da sua autoridade e importância para a democracia e o recurso a um "pânico moral" em torno do fenômeno da desinformação (Farkas, 2023;Carlson, 2020).…”

Recents studies suggest the existence of a European Public Sphere, especially in the face of events of significant importance. In the scope of the Covid-19 crisis, this paper aims to study the platformization of the discussion on European topics by political agents such as politicians and political parties. Focusing on four Southern European countries – Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain – that have a common past history in their relationships with Europe (PIGS), we analyze political agents’ posts with the highest reach. The study was conducted on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube over a period of three months, between September and November 2021. Regarding the platformization and the success of communication strategies, overall right-wing politicians tend to be more effective in capturing the attention and mobilising the participation of social media users on Facebook and Twitter. Different political groups stand out in the discussion of different European issues on different platforms. However, for most countries, the Economy, related to Europe, was the main subject with the highest reach addressed by the political actors, thus reinforcing the idea of Structural Europeanization. However, with most posts having a national scope, this does not contribute to strengthening the construction of a European Identity (Normative Europeanization). These findings are aligned with previous literature regarding European issues being first and foremost used as leverage for national political struggles, especially due to national and populist movements.
