Abstract
Esta investigación explora cómo el periodismo slow afronta los desafíos de un ecosistema mediático dominado por la inmediatez y el consumo acelerado de información en España. Se examinan las características de este tipo de periodismo mediante el análisis de contenido de 15 reportajes publicados en El País Semanal, Jot Down y Libros del K.O. Además, se realizan entrevistas a periodistas y profesionales de estas dos publicaciones y de la editorial para estudiar las tensiones entre la necesidad de producir contenido rápidamente y la apuesta por una narrativa pausada, reflexiva y con impacto social. Los resultados revelan que, a pesar de que las tecnologías y las redes sociales han transformado la manera en que se producen y distribuyen las noticias, el periodismo de largo aliento mantiene su influencia para profundizar en temas espinosos, generar confianza en la audiencia y preservar la calidad editorial. No obstante, la dependencia creciente de los algoritmos y la fragmentación de la atención de los receptores se traducen en retos de enorme calado para su sostenibilidad. Este trabajo contribuye a conocer el slow journalism español y a comprender cómo sus profesionales adaptan sus prácticas en un contexto cada vez más condicionado por la velocidad, la desinformación y la precariedad laboral
This research explores how slow journalism faces the challenges of a media ecosystem dominated by immediacy and the accelerated consumption of information in Spain. It examines the characteristics of this type of journalism through content analysis of 15 longnews stories published in El País Semanal, Jot Down and Libros del K.O. In addition, interviews are conducted with journalists and professionals from these two publicationsand the publishing house to study the tensions between the need to produce content quickly and the commitment to a slow, reflective narrative with a social impact. The results show that, although technologies and social media have transformed the way news is produced and distributed, long-form journalism remains influential in delving into thorny issues, building audience trust and preserving editorial quality. However, the increasing reliance on algorithms and the fragmentation of the audicence’s attention pose enormous challenges to its sustainability. This work contributes to understanding Spanishs low journalism and how its professionals adapt their practices amid a context increasingly conditioned by speed, disinformation and job insecurity.
