A produção de informação desportiva para diferentes plataformas

: o caso do Jornal Record

Abstract

The aim of this project is to address the convergence of the various media within Jornal Record newsroom, focusing on the production of sports information for different platforms, trying to understand if the criteria of newsworthiness differ according to the online and the printed edition. The concepts of journalism, sports journalism, journalism in the digital age and journalistic convergence were addressed, which, combined with the analysis of the printed edition and the Record website, and a four-month curriculum internship in the newspaper, helped to sustain the conclusions reached. The news that made the cover in the printed newspaper the week of September 11 to 17, 2016, were subject to a content analysis. A grid was elaborated with several indicators that allowed to perceive the differences / similarities between the contents published in the printed and in the online edition. Also, an interview was held with Director Adjunto Bernardo Ribeiro, in order to better understand the functioning of the newspaper and its various platforms. This study concluded that while Record can be considered a success story in terms of convergence, the printed newspaper remains the dominant platform in the newspaper's editorial, despite the continued growth of the online platform.
