The media: truth, fiction and entertainment in the construction of a democratic political culture
15-hour course. Coordinator: Francesc A. Martínez. Tenured Professor of Journalism University of Valencia.
The media are political actors in democratic societies. Journalism is in crisis and some people think that the media invite us to “have fun until we die”. Where does the truth remain? Can democracy survive without the truth and with weak media? Can the democratic political culture become deliberative if the media does not show us the differences between reality and fiction, and between information and opinion?
