Nuevas formas de producción de noticias en el entorno digital y cambios en el periodismo: el caso 15-M

Abstract

The 15-M movement, driven by mass mobilisations calling for the regeneration of the political system in May 2011, has had a huge impact in the public sphere. This paper analyses the changes in news production and distribution resulting from the example set by this social movement. The creation of “new” news using social media outside the boundaries established by the journalistic and political elites represents an innovative strategy to bring the movement’s demands onto the mainstream media agenda and to instigate monitoring processes.
