Fans in Online Journalism

By Clarice Frauches Siqueira

This book aims to analyse fan culture in online cultural journalism, using the Ligado em S rie website as its object of study. It demonstrates the relevance of the role of fans in the contemporary context, both creatively and commercially, and as producers of information. To this end, in addition to a survey of the characterisation and development of fan culture, the socio-historical transformations of cultural journalism are also monitored, which, together with the advent of new technologies and the democratisation of information on the internet, have led to a change in the communication process and in the position of the consumer in relation to the cultural industry. This work also argues that there is a new cultural trend on the web: journalism made for and aimed at fans, which incorporates both the values of traditional journalism and the colloquial traits of fan culture.
