Television journalism, Mojo, Technology, FlowAbstract
TV broadcasters have made Mojo a work tool for journalists, who are becoming multitaskers. Using a structured interview, ten brazilian professionals analyze how smartphone flows impact their productions in light of a set of analysis. More aware of traditional capitalism and little knowledge of surveillance capitalism, many recognize the device as a technological advance. Therefore, suggest its complementary use to other television language formats, as occurs in other parts of the world and not under the economic bias adopted in Brazil, which ends up generating resistance among the majority of interviewees.
