Abstract

El Covid-19 es un fenómeno de una magnitud y relevancia enormes. Su impacto ha afectado a diversos dominios sociales, entre ellos los medios y el periodismo. Desde el inicio de esta crisis sanitaria, las noticias se han convertido en un valioso recurso para la ciudadanía. Estudiar sus dinámicas de consumo informativo es altamente relevante tanto por su capacidad de transformar el sistema mediático como por su incidencia democrática. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la influencia del nuevo coronavirus en el consumo de noticias, la credibilidad otorgada por los ciudadanos a los medios y su capacidad para detectar noticias falsas. Para responder a estas cuestiones, se realiza un análisis exploratorio e inicial a partir de los datos secundarios de las encuestas online del Pew Research Center’s American Trends Panel en Estados Unidos, comparando antes y después del brote. Los resultados avalan el impacto del Covid-19 sobre el sistema mediático. Los hallazgos sugieren la emergencia de importantes novedades como el resurgimiento del protagonismo de los medios tradicionales, especialmente de la televisión, y la reconexión a las noticias de los ciudadanos más alejados de la información. Con ello se han reducido, en parte, las desigualdades existentes respecto al consumo de noticias entre los ciudadanos. Esto genera potenciales beneficios para la democracia en términos de igualdad y accesibilidad en relación a los asuntos públicos.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
