El internet ha generado una serie de cambios en el trabajo periodístico que ha llevado a muchos a preguntarse si el producto informativo de los medios son de calidad, principalmente porque en los medios digitales impera, muchas veces, la exigencia de la inmediatez sobre el trabajo básico del periodista: seleccionar el hecho noticioso, corroborar la información, buscar fuentes adicionales que acerque a la audiencia a la comprensión del hecho noticioso abordado y construir responsablemente la publicación. El presente trabajo de investigación tiene como finalidad identificar el nivel de cumplimiento de los estándares de calidad periodística propuestos por Lorenzo Gomis y el VAP-UC en los medios digitales de IDL Reporteros, El Comercio y La República. Se decidió someter a evaluación las notas periodísticas que desarrollaron los tres medios a partir de una serie de screenshots del chat “La Botica” que cada medio obtuvo en exclusiva. La investigación parte de la premisa de que los chats, como fuente de información, son parte de la vida privada de las personas y que su exposición no solo debería estar justificada sino bien argumentada en el producto periodístico. / The internet has generated a series of changes in journalistic work, mainly because of one factor: time.

This master's thesis deals with the impact of influencers on journalism and explores the question of whether influencer strategies are adopted by journalists and how these strategies affect journalistic practices. By examining journalistic content on three German public service media accounts: News-WG, Migratöchter, and Mädelsabende, this study aims to uncover the extent to which influencer tactics are integrated into journalistic work by German public service media. Based on the theoretical framework of the profession of journalism and the profession of influencers, specific strategies were identified that characterize the work of influencers. These strategies were divided into the categories of posting, trust/authenticity, journalistic quality, and influencer inspiration. A qualitative content analysis of Instagram accounts and interviews with people associated with these accounts were then conducted. The analysis revealed that while Instagram accounts draw inspiration from influencer practices, journalistic quality and adherence to professional standards remain paramount. In addition, the analysis was placed in the context of the theory of hybrid media, which added a further perspective to the analysis.This research contributes to the understanding of the evolving dynamic between influencers and journalism in the digital age.
