Abstract

This article is a heteronomous approach to the process of writing and re-writing (reading) the news in the concert of media synergy and the world informative disorder. New technology is “of” rather than “for” information. From Gutenberg to the present, what has survived us as journalists is the written word.
Since using one word for another can change how the world is viewed and, therefore, help to transform it, the assumption is that information highways are language highways keyed to a technology: new news, new journalistic discourse in (for) new recipients, new spaces and new informative times.
