  • La Tertulia Radiofónica, Foro Para El Siglo XXI
    Estudios sobre el Mensaje Periodístico ISSN: 1134-1629 Vol. 8 (2002): 275-291 La tertulia radiofónica, foro para el siglo XXI Dra. Pastora Moreno Espinosa Universidad de Sevilla RESUMEN En su origen, la tertulia está íntimamente ligada a la comunicación en grupo y a un espacio físico, los cafés. Sobre tertulias sabe y debe mucho la literatura española, pero hoy debido a los cambios sociales, los modos y modas de comunicación han variado mucho. Las principales emisoras de radio del país, incluso las locales, poseen un espacio de tertulia donde cuatro o cinco personas ligadas al mundo de la política o las letras conversan sobre temas de actualidad, a veces amigablemente y otras con un tono más elevado. Estas charlas, que en España siempre estuvieron ligadas a los cafés, aparecen en el medio radio como un género estrella, que ha producido auténticas rivalidades. La radio es así el medio de la palabra por excelencia, el procedimiento de comunicación más rápido e inmediato. Y en este sentido, cabe decir que ya no puede estudiarse la información en radio sin hacer referencia constante a un tipo de espacio que adquiere día a día mayor fuerza, la tertulia. Un espacio, por otra parte, poco tratado por los estudiosos del medio radiofónico y que aquí abordamos. La tertulia se ha configurado como un auténtico foro de debate y opinión que desglosa la realidad para su mejor conocimiento e interpretación, elemento clave de este estudio. PALABRAS CLAVE: Radio, tertulias radiofónicas, debate, opinión ABSTRACT In its origin, the social gathering intimately is bound to the communication in group and a physical space, the coffees.

  • La Veritat Ha Deixat De Ser Valuosa
    Entrevista a Julia Otero, periodista “LA VERITAT HA DEIXAT DE SER VALUOSA” Quaranta-dos anys després d’entrar per primer cop en una redacció, Julia Otero és una periodista reconeguda i guardonada, però també és una veu lliure que sovint incomoda per la seva sinceritat. Filla d’emigrants gallecs, va veure de prop la mort quan era adolescent. Tot plegat, una infantesa i una joventut que la convertiren en una persona valenta i decidida. El seu periodisme també va de cara, tot i que s’allunya dels que aposten per la tensió fàcil i el verb agressiu. Ella prefereix escoltar, deixar parlar, fins trobar una escletxa per on fer aflorar les contradiccions dels entrevistats.
