Análise dos processos de produção e recepção de reportagens turísticas

Abstract

Tourism and journalism are two social phenomena of cultural, political and economic significance in today s world. In general, it can be said that the polemic debate surrounding the power of the press bodies is growing at the same rate as international travel.

In order to contribute to reducing this scientific shortfall, this study aims, in general, to analyze the process of construction of a tourism report, its structure as a journalistic genre, and its use by potential tourists. It is a basic study, of an explanatory nature, which takes a qualitative approach. The main data collection tools used are: bibliographic review, document research and non-guided interview.
