Produções contra-hegemônicas no contexto do jornalismo independente de Alagoas uma análise do site Olhos Jornalismo

Abstract

This monograph conducts an analysis of the Olhos Jornalismo website, chosen for its prominence as one of the main platforms for independent media in the current scenario of journalism in Alagoas. Additionally, this work delves into concepts defined by scholars in the field of communication, presenting as its theoretical foundation studies conducted in the field of Political Economy of Communication (PEC). It dissects terms such as independent journalism, alternative media, and counter-hegemonic journalism. The latter gains relevance in this analysis as it is considered a primary point of divergence between traditional and alternative journalism. Another aspect highlighted and considered in this onograph is the data collected by the research group Critical Political Economy of Communication (Cepcom/Ufal/CNPq) throughout 2022. This research involved mapping independent media outlets in the state of Alagoas.
