Traditional media outlets have adapted the generation and spreading of information as the digital communication proposed new demands. Technological convergence has forced the media to encompass new languages and has also given it the possibility of reusing news content in several formats.

In fact, we are a long way from stating that the coexistence of both institutional and personal users within the same virtual space can lead to the production of authentic conversations or a culture of sharing consolidation.

We seek to stipulate how the media and its journalists use Twitter: as a suggestion to engage into a more participative way of communication or as yet another channel of massive distribution of information.

description Since the emergence of the Internet, journalism has been experiencing a radical paradigm shift. Traditional media outlets have adapted the generation and spreading of information as the digital communication proposed new demands.
