MEDIA LITERACY AND INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE<br />
Strategies, Debates and Good Practices<br />
<br />
use is made of the language and build a quality meter that provides objective<br />
data to the media, without discarding more subjective values related to ethics<br />
and journalistic ethics as the ones related to the conditions of production, so<br />
that they can be interpreted any interest in the inclusion-exclusion and<br />
treatment of certain news.<br />
The qualitative and quantitative researches have been so far independent and<br />
specific methods were used depending on the type of study in question. Current<br />
research about communication opt for the application of quantitative and<br />
qualitative, breaking with the traditional procedures that scientifics and<br />
researches has used most of all.<br />
Quality Criteria: The Analysis tab includes quantitative values but introduces<br />
other more specific values that depend on the attitude of the journalist with the<br />
information: Ie, the journalist is a producer of news and he focus it, structure it,<br />
contact with some sources and obvious others (in response to particular<br />
interests or higher internal and external stays to the medium), explains,<br />
analyzes, interprets and sometimes makes a critical assessment<br />
(argumentative or not) of the information.<br />
It can also happens the opposite case and find that the information only<br />
responds to a holding structure, inverted pyramid, not verified, exempt of<br />
explanation, interpretation or analysis, sensationalist, without public interest...<br />
Therefore, the journalist can demonstrate objective criteria that will help to<br />
measure the quality (whether or not he want to apply it) is a step forward, while<br />
its commitment with the media literacy to inform and also educate citizens is<br />
more exposed.<br />
The summary sheet will be the instrument for measuring the quality of<br />
journalism. This tab may include the following items:<br />
