Abstract
En las democracias occidentales, la interacción, coexistencia, filiación
y convergencia de los intereses de partidos políticos, medios de comunicación y capital es cada día más tangible, lo que provocará a medio plazo la sumisión de los medios a los intereses políticos y económicos, y el
abandono de la ciudadanía. Algunos roces recientes entre políticos y periodistas demuestran este aserto y sugieren grandes cambios en el famoso paradigma de Habermas “medios-sociedad-democracia”. El artículo
pone en duda la validez hoy del paradigma del pensador alemán. Descriptores: democracia, medios de comunicación, política.
In Western Democracies the interaction, filiations and convergence of political parties, mass media and great capital is ever more tangible. That convergence will lead, eventually, to the submission and loyalty of mass media to the political and economical elite, with that abandoning the public interest of common citizens. Some clashes between politicians and journalists in the past three years demonstrate these assertions and suggest deep changes in the famous paradigm of Habermas “media-society-democracy”. This article puts in doubt the validity of that paradigm in our current society.
