Comparative analysis of mobile web applications for the main international news agencies: state of the art and preliminary results

Abstract

Despite having a key role in digital journalism as content creators (Boyd-Barrett and Rantanen, 1998; Paterson, 2006), news agencies have not been prominent in the academic studies and analysis of cybermedia. The debate regarding the hegemonic role of the four main Western agencies, Reuters, AP, UPI and AFP, as well as the creation of UNESCO-promoted NOMIC, has taken up what little academic research about news agencies has been conducted during the last two decades (Alleyne and Wagner, 1993; Savio and Giffard, 1995; Boyd-Barret, 1998 and 2006; Esperidiao, 2011).
