| Sumario: |
This work sought to reflect on the news coverage that is offered, to episodes of violation of law committed by teenagers in Valdivia. Therefore, we proceeded to discourse analysis (Van Dijk, 1990), from a logical interpretative, emphasizing the semantic macro that is built and describes the news. This analysis allowed us to observe that the news linked to young express a sensationalistic and stigmatizing discourse that promotes and perpetuates the reproduction of stereotypes associated with adolescence, characterized by aggression and violence, ongoing breach of the rules and use weapons to intimidate others, as explanatory factors for criminal behavior. Finally, the work reflects the impact caused by mass media and the fragmenting to the person constructed around the adolescence prejudices. |
