The objective is to map printed periodicals in Massachusetts and to identify if the Brazilian Times newspaper, the oldest to circulate it in the state, facilitates the acculturation and/or the establishment of the people who had changed the Brazilian lands for the northeast of the United States. The methodology involved bibliographical research, in order to base the study with historical and current concepts of citizenship, community and the problems of migration; documentary research; and half-structuralized interviews and analysis of content of the newspaper. The documentary research gathered data from the ethnic periodicals and from the Brazil - United States migratory situation. The analysis of content took 11 editions of the periodical published between 2001 and 2011, and tried to identify and analyze the journalistic subjects prioritized and their approach, to compare the space destined for journalism to that of advertising and to define the profile of the advertisers. The half-structuralized interviews were undertaken with publishers of the periodical and with Brazilian readers who live in the region where the printed edition circulates. It s conclusion was that the Brazilian Times does help to preserve cultural aspects of Brazilian culture as well as facilitating the integration of the immigrants in to the United States way of life. If on one hand its main objective is profit, since it reserves most of the space for advertising, on the other it presents typical ethnic periodical characteristics, such as its emphasis on subjects of interest to the immigrant community (minority). This makes it an opinion former within the Brazilian community in the United States. / Estudo sobre os jornais étnicos em língua portuguesa destinados a brasileiros que migram para os Estados Unidos. O objetivo é mapear os jornais impressos de Massachusetts e identificar se o jornal Brazilian Times, o mais antigo a circular no estado, colabora com a aculturação e/ou enraizamento das pessoas que trocaram as terras brasileiras pelo nordeste dos Estados Unidos. A metodologia englobou pesquisa bibliográfica, de modo a fundamentar o estudo com os conceitos históricos e atuais de cidadania, comunidade e a problemática da migração; pesquisa documental; entrevistas semi-estruturadas e análise de conteúdo do jornal. A pesquisa documental reuniu dados sobre jornais étnicos e a situação migratória Brasil - Estados Unidos. A análise de conteúdo tomou como corpus 11 edições do jornal publicadas de 2001 a 2011, a qual procurou identificar e analisar os temas jornalísticos priorizados e o tipo de abordagem, além de comparar o espaço destinado ao jornalismo e à publicidade e traçar o perfil dos anunciantes. As entrevistas semi-estruturadas foram realizadas com editores do jornal e com leitores brasileiros que vivem da região onde, preferencialmente, circula a edição impressa. Conclui-se que o Brazilian Times tanto ajuda a preservar aspectos culturais do Brasil, quanto colabora com a integração dos migrantes ao modo de vida estadunidense. Se por um lado tem como principal objetivo o lucro, visto que reserva a maior parte do espaço para anunciantes, por outro apresenta característica típica de jornais étnicos, tal como ênfase nos assuntos de interesse dos migrantes (minoria), o que lhe confere um espaço como formador de opinião junto à comunidade brasileira nos Estados Unidos.

La presente investigación examina los mecanismos en que se puede evidenciar la desinformación y la posverdad en el periodismo de opinión. Para abordar este tema, se elabora un instrumento que identifica estos mecanismos en el contenido de las columnas de opinión de Aldo Mariátegui y Luis García, en los diarios Perú21 y Expreso respectivamente, que tratan sobre el segundo proceso de vacancia contra el expresidente Pedro Pablo Kuczynski desde que este proceso empezó hasta un día luego de que el presidente Martín Vizcarra entrara al cargo. El primer capítulo se dedica a la explorar el origen de la posverdad en la desinformación, así como a analizar qué elementos estos comparten y cómo se ha dado su traspase de uno al otro. Asimismo, se delimitan los mecanismos de la desinformación y posverdad que se relacionan al periodismo de opinión: falacias como la ad populum, la afirmación gratuita y la generalización precipitada; así como términos de descalificación personal y referencia a noticias falsas. En el segundo capítulo se explora y se da un recuento del estado del periodismo de opinión en Perú. Posteriormente, se elabora un instrumento para examinar las columnas escogidas, y se analizan los hallazgos de ese proceso. Estos hallazgos nos revelan que en las columnas analizadas se podía advertir que el uso de estos mecanismos de la desinformación y posverdad, falacias y términos de descalificación personal, reemplazaban la argumentación necesaria para sostener sus posturas. / The following research examines some mechanisms that can show the presence of disinformation and post-truth in opinion journalism. To address this issue, it develops an instrument that helps to identify these mechanisms in the content of the opinion columns of Aldo Mariátegui and Luis García, in the newspapers Perú21 and Expreso respectively, that comment on the second impeachment process against former President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski. The period of analysis took place since the process started until one day after President Martín Vizcarra took office. The first chapter explores the origin of post-truth in disinformation, as well as analyzing what elements they share and how they have transferred from one to the other. Likewise, the mechanisms of disinformation and post-truth that are related to opinion journalism are delimited: fallacies such as ad populum, gratuitous affirmation and hasty generalization, as well as name-calling (adjectives of personal disqualification) and reference to fake news. In the second chapter, this research explores the context and state of opinion journalism in Peru. Subsequently, an instrument is developed to review the chosen columns and analyse the findings of this process were discussed. These findings reveal that in the opinion columns that were analyzed, the use of these disinformation and post-truth mechanism, as fallacies and name-calling (adjectives of personal disqualification), replaces the arguments needed to defend their stances. / Tesis
