The proximity of the description with that dominant view that considers politics as an activity devoid of values, whose pragmatism contrasts with the politics of ideals, allows to achieve such verisimilitude. Thus, the most effective descriptions in the valuation of the political calcullation, strategy and interests of those who are involved - with evidences of political gestures in solidarity to that estimate - would be the closest to the ‘real’ facts. However, this adjustments of interests over values offers a direction when considering these accounts as sources, because it overshadows those moral orientations which, as other studies indicate, would be very spread among the leaders of peronismo. En mi investigación de doctorado, en curso, sobre emergencia y caída de líderes del Partido Justicialista de Salta (Argentina), observo relatos de la prensa gráfica que describen eventos de la dinámica política a partir de chismes, rumores y confidencias obtenidos en interacciones mediadas por la confianza y la intimidad con dirigentes, funcionarios y trabajadores próximos a los líderes locales. Aunque éstos no pueden ser verificados, la credibilidad en las informaciones, para los escritores y periodistas, se sostiene también en la confianza. Sin embargo, lo que es más importante, los análisis e interpretaciones que los relatos desarrollan construyen veracidad a partir de la verosimilitud. La proximidad de la descripción con aquella mirada dominante que considera la política como una actividad carente de valores, cuyo pragmatismo se opone a la política de ideales, permite alcanzar esa verosimilitud. Así, las descripciones más efectivas en la estimación del cálculo político, la estrategia e intereses de los implicados -con pruebas en gestos políticos solidarias a esa estimación- serían las más próximas a los hechos ‘reales’. Sin embargo, esta ponderación de intereses por sobre valores ofrece un sesgo al momento de considerar esos relatos como fuentes, puesto que eclipsa aquellas orientaciones morales que, como otros estudios indican, serían muy difundidas entre los dirigentes peronistas.

In my present doctoral research on emergency and fall of leaders of the Justicialista Party of Salta (Argentina), I observe accounts of the graphic press that describe events of the political dynamics taking into descriptions gossip, rumors and confidences obtained from interactions mediated by the trust and intimacy with leaders, civil servants and workers close to local leaders. Although those rumours and confidences cannot be verified, the credibility of the information, for writers and journalists, is also supported by trust. However, the analysis and interpretation of the information construct veracity from the verisimilitude .
