SANT'ANNA, Francisco. ¿Quién hace la noticia en el Parlamento brasileño?: Análisis comparativo de las rutinas de los newsmakers del Senado federal. Comun. soc [online]. 2009, n.12, pp. 119-148. ISSN 0188-252X.

Press coverage of the Brazilian Parliament is done daily by a contingent of more than 200 journalists. One part of that contingent is hired by the traditional press, while another part works for the Federal Senate mass media of source structures (MFSF). The aim of this article is to delimit the social-professional profile, the routines, values and journalistic paradigms adopted by those professionals of the MFSF in a comparative study with their colleagues from the traditional press, as well their social representation they possess in relation to the MFSF.

Keywords : media of the source; professional territory; journalist of the source; parliamentary journalism; journalistic routines.
