The results of an investigation are presented whose objective is to analyze the media coverage of violence against men –mainly physical– in Mexican and Colombian newspapers, with the purpose of establishing the visibility and treatment that the selected media give to this type of violence, based on aspects such as length of journalistic texts, genres and sources used, and analysis of the use of language; Furthermore, recognize whether discursive practices constitute forms of symbolic violence that stigmatize masculinity. The approach is qualitative and, for the collection and analysis of information, content analysis is chosen. The type of research is descriptive. It is found that the violence exerted against men constitutes a marginal event in the media agenda, treated as unusual and uncommon. The approach is usually mediated by sexist stereotypes with little depth, since the covera...

This proposal constitutes the third phase of an investigation on the communication-gender relationship, which this time was based on a media observation on women and gender violence, which is the subject of. It was sought to test 8 of the 13 categories found in the Colombian case in the first phase (Ordóñez et al., 2016a) and establish whether they are replicated in the Argentine national press. We also sought to identify new emerging categories that, in the same way, justify, validate or minimize gender violence against women. The year of observation was 2018 and was based on a quantitative approach that allowed us to conclude that the categories detected in the Colombian press are present in the Argentine press, although to a lesser extent than in Colombia. New categories were also detected (such as the “Exaltation of Sexual Violence”, as if the important thing was the violence o...

This article is the result of an investigation that analyzed the incidence of Venezuelan migration in the imaginary that Colombians have of migrants and of themselves, as well as of the current socio-political situation of the two countries, expressed through “memes” that circulate on social networks, which are taken as active scenarios of the political sphere that allow observing the variations in public opinion. Methodologically, the research was framed within the mixed approach (qualitative-quantitative), based on the analysis of the discourse of a set of memes extracted from Facebook and Twitter, whose preliminary results were contrasted with those of surveys and focus groups directed at Colombian citizens to identify types of imaginaries around Venezuelan migration and its impact on the image that Colombians have of their own reality and of the migrant
