The emergence of social networks and the consequent urgency to share content caused the press to adapt communicative and inaugurate a new era. The infographics are perhaps the main brand -­‐ previously considered feature and today firmly seen as gender. It is the online interactive infographic that combines all the potentialities offered by the online media. The comparison between two leading newspapers -­‐ Público, awarded the ‘Iberian best-­‐designed newspaper’ and the british newspaper The Guardian, winner of the Pulitzer 2014 -­‐ aims to confirm the imposition of the infographic as a journalistic narrative.
