GARCES PRETTEL, Miguel E.  y  ARROYAVE CABRERA, Jesús. Autonomía profesional y riesgos de seguridad de los periodistas en Colombia. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.49, pp.35-53. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2549-002-2017.

This paper analyzes the relationship between professional autonomy and security risks of journalists in Colombia. A correlational-transversal research was conducted with a sample of 751 journalists who filled out the questionnaire “Worlds of Journalism Study”. The results show significant differences on the attacks received by the journalists depending on gender, news beat, region, news media, years of experience, capacity and educational level of journalists. Attacks on journalists correlates positively with the autonomy to publish and write news on governments, armed forces, criminal gangs and structural social problems (poverty, status of ethnic minorities, socioeconomic inequality, environmental damage) the latter being a predictor of high risk security.

Palabras llave : Journalism; attacks; risk; professional autonomy; news; press freedom; security.
