Abstract

Brazilian newscasts have experienced a series of changes in face of the challenges of Covid-19 coverage, with changes in production routines, demand for new functions and skills, and new productions of meaning on screens. The change in the anatomy of the newscast (Piccinin & Soster, 2012) went through phases, which also include the narrative construction that was being made about the pandemic itself at all times. The purpose of this article is to present an analysis of the pandemic coverage in 18 editions of the RJ1 and RJ2 newscasts, broadcast by Rede Globo in Rio de Janeiro. The method that was used is the Case Study (Yin, 2011), aplied in the first nine months of Covid-19 coverage, using as theorical reference the phases of Brazilian television news programs detected by Silva (2018). The aim is to identify the new narrative strategies (Thomé & Reis, 2019a), observing what characteristics of previous phases were retaken and / or reformulated, and also how the pandemic changed productive routines and generated new productions of meaning on the screens. Sources holding microphone, sounds sent by applications, reporters with masks, resignified archive images and predominance of live broadcast - the change in the anatomy of the newscast (Piccinin & Soster, 2012) went through phases, which also included the narrative of construction being done on the pandemic itself at each time of newscast coverage that was analiysed.
