This article compares the patterns of political information between general voters and the most interested audiences (journalists, academics, consultants and political leaders), focusing on the case studies of three critical elections held in 2015: the last general elections from Argentina, Spain, and Venezuela. The method used compared primary data for specialized audiences (also called “political geeks”) with secondary data for normal voters, taken from three different external sources. The research found that the habits and sources of political information of specialized audiences during the electoral campaign differ from those of the general voting public. Specialized publics rely more on social networks as source of political information than general voters, however the gap is bigger on Twitter and narrower for Facebook. Voters in general use Facebook and WhatsApp more than specialized audiences do. In addition, there is a shift of the center of gravity of the campaigns towards the digital world, both in the specialized publics and in the normal electoral population, but digital migration seems to be more accelerated among specialized audiences than among ordinary voters. It was also observed that political information tends to lead to media convergence and a consolidated or “hybrid” communication system. This research also suggests that despite the rapid acceptance of the digital in the information world, it is possible that little journalism, research, or campaigning is being done where the massive audiences really are .

选举人来自脸书,政治极客来自推特:阿根廷,西班牙和委内瑞拉的政治信息消费

本文比较了一般选民和最感兴趣的听众(新闻工作者,学者,顾问和政治领导人)之间的政治信息模式,重点研究了2015年举行的三场关键选举的案例研究:上一次阿根廷,西班牙和西班牙的大选。委内瑞拉。所使用的方法将专业受众的主要数据(也称为“政治怪胎”)与正常选民的次要数据进行了比较,这些数据来自三个不同的外部来源。研究发现,竞选期间专业观众的政治信息习惯和来源与一般投票公众的习惯和来源不同。专业公众比普通选民更依赖社会网络作为政治信息来源,但是Twitter上的差距更大,Facebook上的差距更小。一般而言,选民比专门受众更多地使用Facebook和WhatsApp。此外,无论是专业人士还是普通选民,竞选活动的重心都朝着数字世界转移,但是,专业观众中的数字迁移似乎比普通选民更快。还观察到,政治信息往往导致媒体融合和巩固或“混合”的传播系统。这项研究还表明,尽管信息世界迅速接受了数字技术,但在真正有大量受众的地方,很少进行新闻,研究或竞选活动。无论是专业人士还是普通选民,竞选活动的重心都朝着数字世界转移,但是,专业观众中的数字迁移似乎比普通选民更快。还观察到,政治信息往往导致媒体融合和巩固或“混合”的传播系统。这项研究还表明,尽管信息世界迅速接受了数字技术,但在真正有大量受众的地方,很少进行新闻,研究或竞选活动。无论是专业人士还是普通选民,竞选活动的重心都朝着数字世界转移,但是,专业观众中的数字迁移似乎比普通选民更快。还观察到,政治信息往往导致媒体融合和巩固或“混合”的传播系统。这项研究还表明,尽管信息世界迅速接受了数字技术,但在真正有大量受众的地方,很少进行新闻,研究或竞选活动。还观察到,政治信息往往导致媒体融合和巩固或“混合”的传播系统。这项研究还表明,尽管信息世界迅速接受了数字技术,但在真正有大量受众的地方,很少进行新闻,研究或竞选活动。还观察到,政治信息往往导致媒体融合和巩固或“混合”的传播系统。这项研究还表明,尽管信息世界迅速接受了数字技术,但在真正有大量受众的地方,很少进行新闻,研究或竞选活动。
