Cubrimiento del proceso de paz por parte de Colprensa

Abstract

One of the challenges that a student encounters when he begins his relationship with working life is how close he will be to what he has learned in academia and with theory and practice. The student finds a clash between the duty to be, which is the theory and how things should develop on paper, and what it really is, which are the real dynamics with which things work, often distant from what has been learned in University. In journalism the situation is not different, in the academy they teach about the balance of information, the multiplicity of sources, fieldwork and corroboration of information, but really these characteristics are fulfilled in the day to day of the professional, and even more so when This professional is in charge of covering a topic of transcendental importance, such as a peace process between the National Government and the FARC. This research work seeks to analyze the coverage of Colprensa in front of this topic, looking at it under the magnifying glass of what should be and contrasting it as it is done in everyday life.
