Memória e Teoria Ator-Rede: Mediação nos Sites do Estadão e da Folha de S. Paulo

Abstract

This paper discusses how the ideas that guide the Actor-Network Theory (ANT) can be the basis for studies from journalism produced for the internet. We seek to apply the principles of ANT to understand the resource mnemonics uses in web journalism and understand which modalities of mediation characterize these uses. The websites of the Estadão and Folha de S. Pauloformed the corpus to be among the main Brazilian (web) newspapers, regarding the trials of the specifi cities of web journalism. The study was conducted in a typical week in which there has been no event or event featured so as not to corrupt or emphasize some associations. We realize how much can be misleading to consider the mere presence of memory as an indication of quality or depth content. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
