The journalistic genres on Twitter. A comparative study of journalistic organizations
Keywords:
Journalistic Genres. Journalics Genres. Twitter.Abstract
Twitter is now considered an indispensable tool for news organizations. But what the news organizations have been produced on Twitter? Could you say that Twitter has created new journalistic genres? Studying the tweets of @guardian_world, @folha_mundo (about Egypt’s Revolution), @folha_cotidiano and @el_pais through comparative analysis during a week, it was found that there are new “journalistic genres” (SEIXAS, 2009), which, although common in other fields, were not common in journalistic products when the social institution is an utterer of discourse. The only common journalistc genre is known as “informational”, while the most produced “journalics genres” are the “promotional”, based on direct acts (SEARLE, 1998), the genres of “mediaton”, grounded on retweet, and the “dialogics”.
