Em busca das boas notícias: uma análise dos conteúdos de viés positivo e do jornalismo de soluções dentro da plataforma Ecoa

Abstract

This research focuses on analyzing journalistic productions with a positive bias on Ecoa, UOL's platform, seeking to verify whether Solutions Journalism techniques are incorporated, a trend that places responses to social problems as the focus of journalism content. For this, the research seeks the definitions of news values, good news, genres and Solution Journalism. It also permeates other journalistic currents, to seek approximations and distances between practices. Constructive Journalism, Peace Journalism, Civic Journalism and Propositional Journalism are cited. In order to fulfill the objectives of the research, a content analysis of 24 platform texts is carried out, distributed in different editorials, in order to have a broad view of the presence of positively biased content and Solutions Journalism on the platform. The results achieved show that there are texts within Ecoa that are in line with the practice of Solution Journalism and that there is also an expressive presence of Constructive Journalism.
