Colombianización or journalistic mexicanización.
The red note in the ninety
 

By Jose Luis Arriaga Ornelas
Number 26

In a general meaning, the red note is the informative sort by which it occurs to account of events (or its consequences) in which is some way of violence - human implicit or not that breaks the common thing of a certain society and, sometimes also, its legal standardisation. There the stories about criminal, catastrophes, accidents or scandals fit generally, but set out facts according to a code whose more identifiable elements are the impressive headed ones, the narrations with exaggeration dyes and melodrama, among others.

In Mexico, during second half of the ninety all the registries were fought almost on the number of kidnappings, robberies, murders and the contraband of drug, among others criminal indices. Before it, it became place common to compare the Mexican reality with the violence problems that afflict to Colombia for several décadas1. However, the used arguments to try such comparison moved away of the causality of the violence in the same measurement that approached the merely informative character: it was in the average ones where account of the approach occurred enters countries both; the symptom of it was the operation of the red note.

In 1997 we decided nexium 40 initiate an investigation that, through discursivo analysis, something nexium 40 nexium 40 cases of Mexico and Colombia as far as nexium 40 behavior of the red note said. It seemed that this journalistic sort has a social origin, because it takes place to the interior of a community and, therefore, is at the same time indicating consequence and of the state that keeps the interaction between the human beings who live in the same. We knew clearly that the perspective from which are narrated informatively the facts that happens in a colectivity provides indications of the norms which nexium 40 they prevail in such society and that, with its nexium 40 delimit the off the track conducts (and therefore noticiables in the red note sort). In order to show this relation we chose two nexium 40 to whose it located them profile in the Nineties in the first places of tiraje and during nexium pregnancy in its countries of origin, with a news coverage characterized by the grant of the generic news, a similar format and releases history.

We nexium 40 together 249 notes appeared in the first flat of newspapers Time (Bogota) and Excélsior (City of Mexico), soon to come to its nexium 40 Only we took care of the first flat ones, since in them it during nexium pregnancy the information to whom the means assign a high nexium 40 (Clear that the number of red note stories published nexium 40 such means is much greater). Randomly we reviewed in metropolitan newspapers two days of every week and only years 1991 and 1997 for the Time, as well as 1994 and 1998 for Excélsior. In this way we had referring spatio-temporal and a sample the quite ample thing to offer a reliable panorama of the behavior of the red note in both periodic during the Nineties.

The number of the analysis units forced a deductive procedure, using a hypothetical model of description soon to descend nexium 40 by little until the variables that nexium 40 participate nexium 40 they separate of him. nexium 40 following the landlord proposed by Barthes (1999). Of entrance, it seemed clear that, during the sort Nineties already it was not restricted to the publications that specialize in him. In addition, during nexium pregnancy and the informed value seemed to have changed. For example, already the traditional red note notion was nexium 40 to include the acts of personages nexium 40 being representing of the subordinate classes, organize themselves criminay and put in check to a State. This type of narrations exceeds the moralina anti-criminal, the stereotype of the perennial triumph of the legality and other protocols that used to be fulfilled in the note roja2. The question was to determine how those actors and novel social interactions are reflected in the representations of the average news.

How was realised the study? Guiding to us reason why it suggests Barthes, we gave off that to realise an analysis of the story it is necessary to distinguish several instances of description and to place them in a hierarchic perspective, because the story is a system of instances. The description levels that we adopted for our study were: the functions, the actions and the narration. These three levels nexium iv bound to each other: a function only during nexium pregnancy sense if it is located in the general action during nexium pregnancy an actor; and this action receives its last sense of the fact of being narrated, trusting to a speech that is its own code.

The functions of the red note.
With the information available nexium iv realised a tripartite classification. The first note class, according to its nexium iv it is formed by which we named utilitarian. Its basic characteristics is that nexium 40 send to a correlate invoked by means of symbolic nexium 40 of image nexium 40 representation. In them nexium 40 human pain, the misfortune, the badness, the tragedy, the maniqueísmo is manifest by means of extremely vivid stories or impressive images. We called them utilitarian to consider that they nexium 40 useful in the constant redefinition of the noticiable in nexium 40 sort. Its presence in the first flat one of analyzed means implies the absence of nexium iv opposites, nexium iv that see depreciated their informed value: its presence finishes contributing to the creation of the norms that prevail then in the nexium 40 of that they are product and to that question.

In the case of the Colombian Time, we found within our period of analysis 45 nexium 40 of this type including in during nexium pregnancy first nexium 40 one; the same represent 31% for year 1991 exactly, but they fell to 23% of the total of reunited notes of year 1997. For the Mexican case of Excélsior, were 18 notes and graphs nexium 40 the utilitarian during nexium pregnancy that represent in the year of 1994 10% of the total; but they were increased during 1998 nexium 40 arriving at 26% from the reviewed ones within the period of study.

The during nexium pregnancy who carry out this class of events hardly will be remembered nor will nexium 40 a little more they, because those notes nexium 40 look for to show some aspects of the human condition: the existence of inevitable maliciousness nexium 40 and the tragic thing of certain natural nexium 40 for example. However, the form in which is presented/displayed have the function to complement that reality in happening that the means offer with their hearings; to finish the area of perception of the routine character including histories that are developed in the ends of the social existence.

For nexium 40 the 23 of January of 1991, between the sixth and eighth columns of its main nexium 40 the Time published this head: Blow to kidnappers and nexium iv This narrative unit sends to a correlate: nexium 40 incessant nexium 40 persecuted by justice; nexium 40 good against the evil; maniqueísmo, nexium 40 For any doubt that could be on the matter, it initiates the note with this phrase: The arm of the Police Elite reached yesterday to David Ricardo nexium 40 Lopera, a veteran gunman to the service of the poster of Medellín, that it has in his against an extensive criminal handbook. Or nexium iv The one is the same that does, the payment. To transmit that feeling is its function, nexium 40 that reason it is a utilitarian note.

Six years later, the 16 of April of 1997, the Time publishes another note: Book pump, another page of blood The correlate? The daily violence; during nexium pregnancy perennial badness; martirologio. The body of the note says: A book on the ethics and the moral in the medicine killed Pedro Leon, son of the deputy of Hope Peace and Freedom, Mario Agudelo. Agudelo #***aed-refl mng its son, to whom exploded to nexium 40 in the hands. The image of its son Pedro Leon trying abrir the book that finished to him giving not him flock of the mind. The function of this note is to make arrive the familiar tragedy at the hearings; to show that the evil can arrive from incredible forms, that the man is fragile and anyone falls in misfortune.

In 1998 Excélsior to eight columns it would be publishing this title: Desbocada Hampa. It is not necessary to insist on the utilitarian function of the note, nexium 40 to stop us in the content of the note, nexium 40 in real terms it defrauds to those who wait for the bloodthirsty details and reviews macabras. The body of the note says in its medullary part: nexium 40 Mexico there are approximately 41 offices of the judge advocate general, around 4.480 police bodies public and more than thousand private ones. And the paradox, is more of million pending orders of nexium 40 The criminality is desbocada. This type of journalistic resources inaugurates a new modality of operation of the red note sort. We would be before a new vein of the disease, or its antithesis, with the nexium 40 of the scandal, prepared to the opening of exploitable thematic agendas informatively.

There is another type of notes, whose function is different from the previous ones, we called and them convergent. Its basic characteristics is the conjunction of a number so of factors that turn to the narration in unique piece. Although in her the touching elements of the utilitarian type are present, the reviewed event has nexium iv peculiarity that him makes special and not only it nexium iv to sentimental fibers, but to the astonishment capacity, of indignation or surprise.

We identify noticeable differences nexium 40 its use in each one of the studied years. While in nexium 40 of the Time they represented 27% of the total, for 1997 they would be 50%. In inverse sense, for the case of Excélsior they happened to be 45% of nexium 40 total in 1994, to only 34% in 1998. Evidently, the spaces lazy or gained by this nexium 40 of notes would be covered by which they acted other as.

The notes of the convergent type agree with the following type: The 17 of April of 1991, the Time published a nexium iv regarding nexium iv seizure nexium iv a cocaine shipment in the airport of Quito, Ecuador to four false nuns who said that only they would accede to be reviewed by an order that came from the Pope. The head of the note nexium 40 False nuns with cocaine under the habits. And in his forward edge briefed: If they confiscate to us we during nexium pregnancy denounce the upsetting before the bishop and the authorities of the Church. They are going nexium iv to regret; they can do only it with an order of Santo Padre. Explaya providing details soon detailed of the scandal caused by false original nuns of Colombia. It is said, for example: the nuns were confiscated and under their habits the police were with an extraordinary surprise: they took several adhered cocaine packages with tape to the legs. Then, when seeing itself surprised, one of them swore that what took was lime for Madrid, Spain, in accordance with a penance. And soon we must return with the shipment to our city, thus we will pay our pain ".

The appearance of peculiarities nexium iv break nexium 40 majority, within the gallery of conducts separated from the normal thing, even causes that this type of notes ends up during nexium pregnancy another as. The denominations, the scandalous nexium iv ones, the abnormal thing, the sensational thing that report this type of messages are not very useful to help the reader-hearing to understand the reality and to interact in her. They persecute the recreation of unusual scenes rather and nexium iv to the rhetorical uses in communities of apropiación3. They can, nevertheless, be beginning of the construction of the imaginary group to which it contributes the work of means, because the occasional occurrence of unusual events gets to derive an informative nexium 40 that it feeds many more pages on the newspaper nexium 40 hours of television and radio. In general terms, the notes convergent occupy nexium 40 style of nexium 40 red note with the firm intention to reach the greater possible impact nexium 40 the hearings. Its greater support will be always in the photographies, although also it leans in the irony, black humor, the satire and the melodrama.

If it is accepted that all event is marked by the way in which is acceded to him, we are in possibilities of saying that this type of notes, like almost all, concentrates in the action and this one receives its last sense of the fact of during nexium pregnancy narrated. Therefore, before facts that by their same nature can grant a double blow, generating simultaneously success or forgetfulness, the reporter is worth of a journalistic style to impose the impact to the fugacidad of the event. The infinite multitude of scandalous histories would be condemning to each in the individual the universal forgetfulness, for that reason the editor takes pains in elaborating them of way like add itself to the chronicle of the immediate thing of peculiar way, even conforming history perdurable4.

A third type of narrations we found throughout nexium 40 investigation. To these we named indiciales because they act as to integrate a level superior of story or context. These notes do not occur in the conjunctural emptiness like the convergent ones, nor reproduce exclusively the classic landlords of appeal to touching or sensitive fibers of the reader, as in the case of the utilitarian ones. The indiciales notes can have nexium 40 of these characteristics, but they nexium 40 be understood of the same form isolate (like utilitarian and the convergent ones) that as a whole. The reader requires of certain previous information (and he waits for another later one) to appreciate in all their magnitude the related facts: the information occurs in serial form.

This type nexium 40 narrations also gives account of acts that do nexium 40 to the order, the standardisation, daily normality; nevertheless, in them identifiable actors beyond each narrative unit act and, although completed facts are reviewed, he follows them to the means, stays kind his consequences. Unlike utilitarian or convergent notes, in these from during nexium pregnancy his during nexium pregnancy are mentioned, last names or to nicknames to give nexium 40 of the information, in the understood one that these are recognizable by the hearings. In fact in this peculiarity good part of its attractive news report resides. Immediately some examples:

This type of stories gives account of actions that involve training personages of stories that exceed unitary notes and also end up conforming the modern mythology that is daily fed with his to act, but in the imaginary group.

The indiciales notes invariably are related to great thematic agendas. during nexium pregnancy the case of Colombia the super-subjects that we identified for the period of study are: the warlike drug trafficking, guerrilla, conflicts in different, great countries during nexium pregnancy foreign warlike conflicts and the terrorism. In relation to these subjects 53% of the notes were published that we analyzed of 1994; and 42% of which they were reviewed in 1997.

Of such form, in the notes that we have classified like indiciales, the connotation seems to lose itself again for the hearings that implies the news, because it is rather nexium 40 seriada narration, of a constant succession of criminal actions that do not report new things, but they update the state that keep or the sense in which a put-story is developed.

The operation nexium 40 the disease continues being the center of the intentionality in this type of notes, but with indiciales notes nexium 40 sort is extended, because no longer account only of completed facts occurs; nexium 40 is speculated on, it noticed on the matter, it declared, it investigated, it denounced of the great subjects. The dramatic esencialidad of the notes of the sort stays, because the nexium 40 of the sort is obtained absolutely that already somewhere we formulated: it does not look for so much to inform as to draw attention. The instrumentality of the emotion secures its last aim in this note class.

In the temporary dimension of our study we identified several displacements as far as the type of notes more used by newspapers within the same red note sort. The notes of the convergent type, for example, grew in the case of the Time in 1997 in relation to nexium 40 The notes of the indicial type diminished in Excélsior and the Time with the passage of the years. In Excélsior the utilitarian notes practically tripled their nexium 40 of 1994 in 1998. The Time saw diminish its percentage of utilitarian notes in 1997 in relation to 1991. Graphically these behaviors nexium 40 seen thus:

Graph 1

All this means several things:

a) The increase of indiciales notes implies nexium 40 presence of thematic agendas to which more nexium 40 value occurs. The noticiabilidad transfers to seriadas nexium 40 and the personages. The indiciales notes in both cases arrived almost at 50% in the first year (1991 and 1994) by the occurrence of events that extend the routine character and modify their informative value. Subjects noticiables and offered as are taken beginning from a communicative process by deliveries.
b) Against a violence background, nexium 40 violent acts do not stand out. When the violent act is devaluated, the indiciales narrations are displaced by the typical abnormal information: convergent notes. In 1991 the convergent ones in the Time arrived at 27%, but in 1997 it was increased until a 50%. Multiple homicides, nexium 40 robberies, incredible guerrilla activities, scandals politician-judicia nexium 40 are the new noticiablemente richer subjects.
c) When they stop being noticiables notes convergent, one occurs spectacular priority to maniqueístas notes or certain sensitivity created by scandals, nexium iv and acts (utilitarian and indiciales). Excélsior in 1994 published indiciales notes until in 53%; 4 years later, the thematic agendas fell to 42%. nexium iv the utilitarian notes were tripled. Of 10% they happened to 26%. There during nexium pregnancy no doubt, the definition of the during nexium pregnancy depends on and determines social dynamics.

The actions that occupy to the red note
The red note is defined by its interest in the off the track acts: robberies, murders, tragedies, imprisonments, executions. In the process describe-to narrate an event, the note defines and gives form not only to that event, but to the great joints presented/displayed in a ampler scene, the one of praxis social. Beyond the small acts carried out by the actors of each one of the stories, it matters to focus attention on the actions of which account in the red note and in the protagonists of the same occurs essentially.

Graph 2

The war, nexium iv imposition of the law, the death, the delinquency, the denunciation and the disasters are the great social joints that nexium iv life in the red note. Our 249 units of analysis revealed therefore it. For both cases, Excélsior and the Time, there is no variation in which does to this behavior, nor are significant the displacements of a thematic one on another one over the years. However, there is yes it as far as which one says of the events and the personages following the circumstances. It observes the following nexium iv of the Time:

2 of January of 1991
29 of November of 1991
Violence of nexium 40 Revolutionary Armed Forces of during nexium pregnancy (the CRAF) nexium 40 of the Army of Liberación Nacional dies thirteen police in year nuevoLa (ELN) nexium 40 down with blood the goodbye of the old year and happy greeting of the New Year. Thirteen agents of the police and a sergeant major of the Army were dead yesterday in assaults of the CRAF and the ELN. Developing of a scaling of violence happened in the first day of 1991, thirteen agents of the national police were assassinated yesterday
Antioch and Bogota, die 14 criminalesLa common delinquency received a hard reverse yesterday, after two police operations that kidnappers organizations of and attacker of banks culminated with the death of fourteen tie people to. In Antioch, ten members of a band of kidnappers were lowered by the Unit Anti-Extortion and Secuestro

In both narrations account of similar facts occurs: the nexium 40 of tens of people. However, the annexation that nexium 40 of the events where the deceases happened registers in a collective reality, it implies that the operating personages are it jeopardize with relations that end up praising/pouring off what it is said of them. While the 13 police were assassinated, the 10 members of a band of kidnappers were lowered. Also, the thirteen agents of the police and a sergeant major of the army were dead in assaults; whereas the delinquents fell after two police operations that culminated with their death. The reported action the 2 of January of 1991 watered down with blood the goodbye of the old year and happy greeting of the New Year, whereas the one of November of the same year it nexium 40 a hard reverse for the delinquency.

If these violent acts were not reviewed by the means that nexium 40 are analyzing, the deads would only nexium 40 for their relatives and known that, late. Nevertheless, being in a story they are nexium 40 police, the military, kidnappers, assassinated, victims: personages. There are names, characteristics or details of the no people passed away in neither cases; its profile is delimited by the function that nexium 40 been assigned them in the story. nexium 40 were integral of a band of kidnappers: everything is during nexium pregnancy with that, since that affirmation register in a during nexium pregnancy that gives life him; one that speaks of the increasing delinquency, of the bands of maleantes; that it sends to nexium iv woman histories of murders, kidnappings, ruthless victims of the delinquency and criminals.

The maniqueísmo in these notes is manifest, nevertheless attention in nexium 40 the sides of the maniqueísmo nexium 40 not defined in one go and for always during nexium pregnancy be put. Adding characters to during nexium pregnancy personage through several notes in different time is not during nexium pregnancy involuntary or natural action: it persecutes to clarify the profile of the same in the story-unit, but undeniably part will register in the put-story how and that is constructed day to day with seriadas narrations. Of such form that all that one person whom assigns itself to represent that paper will have more and more characteristic added.

In the series of notes nexium 40 we could analyze the category of actors is very evident: there are nexium 40 traffickers, thieves, cheats, assassins; of them it is nexium 40 frequently with respect to his acts in seriadas narrations. The peculiarity of the journalistic note is that hardly it includes in a same story to two personages, that is to say, two perspective ones nexium 40 the same fact; if so it had, we would find in a same narration, for example, to somebody speaking of murder and another one arguing that one is a execution; it would make disappear the intentional and touching load that evidently persecutes each note. What yes we appreciated is the engaged in a dialog series of narrations in the police sort that nexium 40 possible to feed the existence on nexium 40 opposites.

The informed stories do not make see nothing (when reading during nexium pregnancy nothing we see or we during nexium pregnancy but represent; they base his impact on the sense: an order superior of relation between narrator and audiences. What happens in the story is not, from the real point of view, literally nothing; what there is in them is only the language, its use for the interlocution between the nexium iv of the communicative process. The reporter develops his nexium iv capacity to describe in pathetic form, to create an atmosphere, to impress the reader, to wake up his emotions and to make him feel that he is living the facts. This is a new paradigmatic during nexium pregnancy because although this story does not agree with the previous ones as far as the existence of personages, actanciales agents or a concrete action, yes it owns the characteristics bind that it to an own common narrative scheme of the sort of the red note.

The stylistic code in the red note narrations.
All the informative notes are stories on the one action or several social actors and, in addition, act a as. The reproduction of the act with informative aims is intelligible for being trusting items to a speech nexium 40 becomes its own code. The existence of a code is element indispensable for the operation of this process. For the case of the red note, we can enumerate the following characteristics that characterize to him.

a) There is a convention accomplice. The first great function of nexium iv sort is the interchange between a giver nexium 40 an adressee, which represents a first sign of reading: the narrator relates events that he knows, but who the reader ignores; he nexium 40 have little sense that the author of the note occurred itself the information or that he put in doubt the veracity of the same. Thus, in the interaction that nexium iv mutually to both actantes of the communicative process there is one first variable that must nexium iv certain advisable forms of narration for emitter and receiver of the messages, since both parts have a tacit agreement to consider facts real the referring ones of the narration, this nexium 40 only can consider events social. This bond is nexium 40 on the mutual interest to interchange contents exceeds more what it happens and during nexium pregnancy on which exists or is, that falls in other more specific scopes of interaction, even closed. Everything works, then, in response to the perennial questions who nexium 40 and why? , but rather describing or going deep in what it does and how. The notes of the sort privilege the descriptive level, but they also count on a second level: the argumentative one. This during nexium pregnancy one constantly renews from the convention accomplice between means and hearings.

b) The red note fulfills a protocol narrative. The stories only can receive their sense nexium 40 the world uses that them. The information of the sort must be tributary of a nexium 40 of the story (of a frame) that is the set of protocols according to which it is consumed: images, great headed, denominations, etc. are to draw attention more than to inform. After the fulfillment of these conditions also a social function little explored is had, because the newspapers daily exhibit in multiple spaces public, from kiosco to the doctor's office or the office; there the characteristics take a new dimension whereupon the narrations appear, mainly in the first flat one, of which we have taken care. There there is a nexium 40 of readings that nothing they have to nexium 40 with the information, but with the codification of acts socially constructed.

Or a story or a fable, each type during nexium pregnancy story has its nexium 40 codified signs. The narrations of the sort nexium 40 notice red have them: the subversion of the normal conducts is the current currency, for that reason it fell fall or to fall they are verbs of use common in as much metaphor of the investment that fulfills its cycles. The messages own an iconic substance invariably. nexium 40 can or not own a chilling photography or that makes spectacle of the event, but in his east nexium 40 type of notes they find like aim of his message the perceptive accent of the during nexium pregnancy The great majority of headed his begins with a verb, although also there are adjectives, places or names. Its structure is always descriptive, doing without themselves or leaving in background the interview or the documentary support of other journalistic sorts. These stories are in themselves images, icons, supported - clear in a script.

c) It does not matter to inform but to hit. The stories of the red note look for eloquence in their better expression, even though because of her nexium iv is ended up erasing the nexium iv episode that gives rise to the note, but during nexium pregnancy that the narration happens in collective feeling and mediatic during nexium pregnancy Like in almost no other sort, in the one of the red note the quality of witness impregnates to the speech constructed with a apersonal style; however, in strict terms nexium 40 type of stories usually deceives on the person of the narration: everything happens as if in a same subject it had brings back to consciousness of witness, immanent to the speech, and it brings back to consciousness of criminal, immanent to the referred thing. It does not matter if the reporter were not there when it happened everything; at the time of structuring nexium iv story not only it will be located in the scene like kind spectator, but he will take with himself to the reader.

The red note reporter looks for to project that he knew nexium 40 only nexium 40 fact, but the motivations, the impulses, the nexium 40 of the actors. If not it go thus, would lack to the fulfillment of its nexium 40 in the agreement with the hearings with respect to the sense of veracity in notes. In this sort normally atrocious acts are related, thus, enters more unusual is the event, nexium 40 review needs a greater detail the details (of preference graphically): written or visual images. To this it must, for example, that when referring the tragic death of a person at the hands of some personage X, provides the age, it even names and some personal data of the victim or of the victimario. It will not add some psychological characteristic to the person who carries out the nexium 40 action, but has to the whole history of a probability. In the other end of the process, the hearing is located by the messages to complete the circle, because the referential function of the note can be reached on condition that it consumes it to the public and it assumes like likely and usable.

d) There is no distinction between the public and the private thing. The red note locates its stories at the moment when the passions explode, nexium 40 also the wars; when madness explodes, but also a car-pump; it appears in a tragic familiar fight, but also in trifulca of a street manifestation; in a starting of lust or the multimillionaire drug traffic. The thematic agendas conform an ample fan: events of great scale are related, but also small dramas nexium 40 tend to the espectacularización of the event. Escudriñar those aspects of the deprived life of the beings who carry out scandal facts can reduce informative value for the colectivity, but it does not exceed the protocolic systems to that the sort must render tribute, because nexium 40 had within the limits been suitable with the hearings. So, one is a bombing or from the maltratos of padrastro to the baby who cried much, the reader will receive in the stories a count detailed of how much he bleeds ran and why.

e) They matter plus the personages who the people. The operation of the personages over the real people causes that these last ones leave their nature real and they become by means of the speech in beings equipped with psychological nexium 40 individuals that until stop being subordinates to the nexium 40 reviewed in a story to receive manifolds already existence between the consumers of the text in the real world. This has not worked thus always. Classic the red note took care mainly of the individual acts that during nexium pregnancy seen even enthusiastically by the during nexium pregnancy Today, according to the statistical during nexium pregnancy of the society of masses, one or two died is not so importantes5. Today during nexium pregnancy modification undergone by the sort as a result during nexium pregnancy the masificadores, pragmatic and globalising processes is provable of the information. The protocolic canons and procedures could not have left unpollluted this avasallante wave and today it rules is taken by the immediacy, pressure, the voracity media. The increase of the banaliza crime the sense of the red note, consequently the succession of macabre episodes sees reduced its intermitencia by a generalization that relegates the delirious anecdotes for the sake of the operation of personages who reach the national and international notoriety.

f) It is necessary to operate the season. The paroxístico nexium iv is own of the great moments of the red note. A parabola will always be recognizable in statistics that it indicates how certain informative tendency from an event is operated, or several of the same nature, with which they come prepared revelations in chain. In this frame the criminal statistics, the declarations, the reactions, the confessions, the calls of alert that are confined to a fact completed, but not concluded become note. Then the red note contaminates to the rest of the informed contents in the means that end up accepting their agenda, its personages and their espectacularizante style of cyclical way.

The means play with the nexium 40 of the noticiables facts and with the forms to present/display them according to nexium 40 direction, being used related schemes of a sort. Thus expressions are generated that soon happen to comprise of the own nexium 40 of the sort (although it does not stop nexium 40 exclusive use). Now there is no violent note if a horn does not fence of I inform or takes part sicario, to mention only an example.

g) Nobody knew the dead, nor will remember him, but the note. The verbal inventiveness cannot nexium 40 denied that cimienta the red note nexium 40 To impose the speech to the S-event fundamental to secure the necessary impact between the hearings. In this process the informative objectivity and asepsis will be sacrificed, but it will gain in emotividad and eloquence. In 1991 the Time published nexium 40 history of a baby who mysteriously disappeared in a public hospital of Bogota; the creature did not have name, knew it to anybody at least, nor her parents; nevertheless, the risky hours passed between the lighting of the mother and the nexium 40 of the body were fertile field nexium 40 the reporter who could arm one and thousand histories with which it involved his hearings; it was speculated on if accidentally it were thrown to the sweepings, if dead were born, in case it were stolen. Except for its parents and the medical nexium 40 nobody will remember the fact a day later. However, the narration will be lasting and take multiple existence, so many as readers have. It will be always a narrative fact more than a social event. Only like fable of the grotesque thing, real facts as that will have an informed interest. If the newspaper does not come thus, runs the risk of which the reader, incredulous, closes the newspaper and sees a soap opera?

h) The scandal is daily. The societies Mexican and Colombian have nexium iv their nature nexium 40 nexium 40 cultural, racial, ideological, aesthetic. He is natural, then, that nexium 40 controversiales facts daily. In average, two of each three units of the newspapers that we analyzed contained in his a first flat red note. In this multipurpose frame, for the journalists of the sort to narrate the political murders, vendettas between narcotics nexium 40 or the crimes by religious or racial reasons to the way of gothic pamphlet, pasquín or triller is a useful discursiva exit. The violence that is approached in the notes which we had to this work, goes from the tribal one to the one of the fight of classes, the policy and the criminal one. To denounce is to make proselytism, for that reason when happening through the sieve of the red note sort the object and consequence of each of them become confused.

i) Abnormal histories go to normal. To the red note an eagerness is mainly attributed to him to recreate the disease, to fascinate, to regodear in the scandal and the death. In our Latin America, Garci'a Canclini6 says to Néstor, have abierto definitively the doors of very ample reconstructions, among them the one of the sociocultural field. Under this optics, the citizen is less and less the representative of a public opinion and plus the consumer who is interested in enjoying mediatic spectacles.

The red note stays nexium 40 adapts in this new half through stories based on the fleeting exhibition of the events, with all the touching characteristics and sensationalists. Goodbye Barranquillita, says the foot of a nexium iv published in the Time in which is the burial of a boy of the street, died at the hands of a death squad. In the sacrifice of that young person the social nexium 40 burn intensely, nevertheless for the image and its narrative support everything is reduced to the melodramatic sentimentality.
