Synopsis "Alternative News Agencies on the Web (in English)"
With the belief that the traditional and hegemonic media contribute to the resurgence of social problems caused by globalization, spreading and defending neoliberal ideas and the discourse of the inevitability of the phenomenon, various forms of alternative press have emerged around the world, mainly in cyberspace, inspired by anti-globalization movements such as the World Social Forum. Among the various alternative media that have emerged on the web and share the values of social movements, some have followed the model of news agencies, at least in their nomenclature. This paper aims to understand the phenomenon of these media by analyzing the characteristics of Adital (Frei Tito Information Agency for Latin America), Agência Carta Maior and IPS (Inter Press Service). These agencies function as prophets of the weak, oppressed and excluded of the world. Prophets, not bearers of the divine message, but who impose a mission, in this case, to exhort, warn and denounce the social injustices and concentration of wealth of the globalized era.
