Abstract

No doubt the drone journalism is a new tool for the press: its zenith images allow a perspective of today hitherto unpublished and stealth with which it approaches the place of the news unmanned aerial vehicle has revealed some facts that marked citizen journalism of denunciation. The studies made so far are very absorbed by the technicality of the device, neglecting the narrative and aesthetic implant. The drone journalism produces a complex beautification of reality that is consistent with the tactile relationship predisposed by the new interfaces: impenetrable, intuitive, but never deep. We excavate remaining on the surface. The political significance of this new way of seeing «playing» will be approached from visual studies.
