The contract of trust with television news
Abstract
The work focuses on the trust that society places on the Spanish television news. From the relative fidelity to the various news programs of the respective television networks, it can be supposed the domain of the trust in television networks above the trust in its programmes and professionals. Based on the relative limitations of luhmanian approach to account for the trust with regard to organized mediated communication system, it is made an empirical approach to the perception of the public television news. The main empirical sources are various surveys of Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas and six focus groups among the middle class, with different ages. They were held in Madrid and focused on information in television.Downloads
