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

Abstract

Based on the Pacogate corruption case, which affected the Chilean police during 2017, this research explores, using an exploratory methodology and a mixed methodology, the frameworks of the main Chilean television news and the comments that followed on Facebook and Twitter. Through the frames proposed by Entman (2012) on how the media frame corruption, it is postulated, as part of the same media phenomenon, that while the news programs promoted with their frameworks a definition and explanation of the case, the opinions of social networks not only were polarized, but they also gave a moralizing and critical dimension to what happened.
