Modes and meanings of innovation in journalism

Abstract

This research seeks to reflect and identify different ways, aspects and meanings of innovation in journalism. In view of the innovation reports of the New York Times, the documentary analysis was adopted, being a kind of case study founded on Yin, Duarte and Clemente Júnior’s studies, and on the analysis categories systematized by Rosseti, which, in turn, are based on Aristotle’s typology of the concept of change. Starting from Barbosa, Mazza, Giacomini Filho, Silverman, and Fonseca, this important discussion contributes to understand the concept of innovation in journalism and points out trends in the field of communication.
