Narrativas de feminicídio no radiojornalismo do interior gaúcho

Abstract

The dissertation was developed within the postgraduate program in Communication and Creative Industry of Unipampa, makes an analysis of radio narratives in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul. The corpus consists of 12 narratives, in audio and text, of femicide cases. which took place from may to october 2019. The exercise was done through clues, which is the basis of the evidential paradigm, the methodology chosen in this research. The dissertation is supported by concepts of radio, radio journalism of interior, narratives and gender violence, especially the crime of femicide. Our overall objective was to analyze the narrative, identify agents and what are the questions asked by this radio journalism in the interviews, to discuss the function of the interior radio in this agenda. We conclude that the radios of the interior of Rio Grande do Sul only cover the cases by the police and superficial bias, without interviews that deepen the theme. They are narratives based on police reports, sometimes read and posted in their entirety, without changing the technical words of the police. The narratives also show that the radios do not give visibility to the protection mechanisms available to the victims. At the same time, radio journalism in the countryside erases the memory of murdered women, who are only names and ages, which configures yet another violence against these victims. In none of the analyzed texts there are photos of women. In the end, we propose recommendations on how to qualify the coverage of gender-based violence in the interior radio journalism.
