“…Los medios de comunicación tradicionales han sido aliados imprescindibles, cuando no protagonistas, de las mayores campañas de contaminación de la esfera pública. Han colaborado e impulsado todo tipo de campañas de guerra jurídica o lawfare (Bielsa y Peretti, 2019; Romano, 2019 y 2020) y golpes mediáticos (Sierra y Sola-Morales, 2020), constituyendo auténticas cloacas mediáticas (Iglesias, 2022;Labio-Bernal, 2018) en estrecha colaboración con las élites económicas, políticas, judiciales, e incluso con servicios de inteligencia y aparatos policiales del estado profundo.…”

Este monográfico, bajo el título 'Deliberación democrática en la Red: Del diálogo al ruido digital', afronta el reto de pensar las tensiones entre este ruido y la deliberación democrática. En el mismo podemos encontrar tanto investigaciones que abordan experiencias progresistas y usos potencialmente democratizadores de las tecnologías digitales, como fenómenos que ilustran sus riesgos y las amenazas que pueden representar para la calidad del debate público y la propia democracia.

“…The severe economic crisis and political turmoil in neighbouring Venezuela helped to forge a stream of news stories on the 'consequences of communism'. The mainstream media's approach of framing Venezuela as a communist state, despite its self-defined Bolivarian and Socialist regime (Labio-Bernal, 2018;MacLeod, 2018), supported a scenario in which poverty, hunger and political imprisonment were represented as extreme consequences of Brazil 'turning communist':…”

This research performs a thematic analysis on tweets published during Brazil's 2018 elections that mentioned communism. The idea was to identify the linkages to other underlying themes that emerged during what we saw as the Twitter 'virality of communism' and interpret them considering the backdrop of anti-communist discourses in the country. The results show that political polarisation, distrust of democracy, criticism of the left and praise of militarism and religion are the most recurrent themes. We conclude by situating the virality of the term 'communism' as a process that follows a context of disinformation and hopelessness, but which also relates to the legitimate concerns of Brazilian voters.

“…Media capture aims to persuade voters to choose political parties in line with the preferences of business elites (Nordin, 2014). Business elites might buy, lobby, bribe or coerce media owners, editors and journalists during elections to misinform about political parties that are considered a threat to the status quo (Labio-Bernal, 2018;Robles-Rivera, 2021). Control over information helps to explain the lack of indepth public debates in Latin American media, the region with the highest levels of income inequality, about the social, economic and political problems associated with the rise of inequality and income concentration.…”

Large corporations and media companies can form corporate networks through directors who hold positions on multiple boards, potentially enabling business elites to influence the media. This article investigates the relationship between corporate networks and media capture in two Latin American countries. We performed a network analysis of interlocking directorates to uncover these corporate networks, and conducted in-depth interviews with elites to identify two varieties of media capture: coordinated and competitive. Our findings indicate that media companies embedded in cohesive corporate networks are subject to coordinated media capture, whereas media outlets in fragmented corporate networks experience competitive media capture.
