Production, Broadcast and Reception Processes of Foreign News in Chilean TV
Abstract
This paper analyzes the importance given to foreign news in Chilean television and the factors that condition the selection of foreign news in Chilean newscasts. It takes into account the perspective of television journalists and editors, the public’s perception and the content analysis of newscasts aired by two broadcasters. All the stages of this study point out the priority given to domestic contents over foreign contents, and the relevance of elements like impact and emotional proximity in the determination of which foreign news will be aired. The study verified a high level of domestication and a low level of context in foreign news aired in Chilean newscasts.
