Abstract

It is a sociological study, based on material published by major national newspapers which have national policy coverage. The study will be based on the following issues: (a) how is the public voice in framing news, (b) in which forums journalists give voice to civil society, (c) which are the social sources more listened by journalists (d) in which agendas / issues society is recognized by the media as a relevant political actor, (e) the profile of civil society that appears in political news. The analyses goes through the eventual simbolic effects on politics and the consequences of deliberate appropriation of certain discursive sources that act as representatives of the civil sphere. It still evaluates the most relevant effects in the long run, the formation of sensitivities, perceptions and insights of the population who is exposed continuously to the reading of these political news. These issues are seen as normative rhetorical constructions and not a menu of reality.
