          Abstract

          ABSTRACT This article presents the analysis of the news production of El Extra, La Hora and La Gaceta, three written media in Ecuador with the highest national, regional and local circulation respectively. The objective was to determine to what extent their contents are generated from a human rights perspective. Thus, two aspects were addressed: 1) informative production based on the index of violation of rights in the media, and 2) evaluations of journalistic discourse in relation to themes, sources, images and headlines. A mixed approach was used through content analysis and a focus group (FG) in which journalists participated. Among the most relevant results, the predominance of content that violates rights in two of the three media stands out in the indicators overrepresentation of reality and manipulation, although in the indicators ridicule and misuse of language there is no prevalence, there is a significant frequency of content who use language inappropriately and discriminate against individuals or groups. In addition, the differences in the organizational dynamics of the media affect journalistic routines and need to promote permanent training mechanisms on human rights.

          RESUMEN Este artículo expone el análisis de la producción informativa de El Extra, La Hora y La Gaceta, tres medios escritos de Ecuador con mayor circulación en lo nacional, regional y local, respectivamente. El objetivo fue determinar en qué medida sus contenidos se generan bajo una perspectiva de derechos humanos y para ello se abordaron dos aspectos: 1) producción informativa en función del índice de vulneración de derechos en los medios, y, 2) valoraciones del discurso periodístico en relación a temáticas, fuentes, imágenes y titulares. Se trabajó con un enfoque mixto mediante el análisis de contenido y un grupo focal en el que participaron periodistas. Entre los resultados más relevantes se destaca el predominio de contenidos que vulneran derechos, en dos de los tres medios, en los indicadores sobrerrepresentación de la realidad y manipulación, aunque en los indicadores ridiculización y mal empleo del lenguaje no hay prevalencia, hay una frecuencia importante de contenidos que usan de manera inadecuada el lenguaje y discriminan a personas o colectivos. Además, las diferencias en las dinámicas organizativas de los medios de comunicación, inciden en las rutinas periodísticas y necesitan promover mecanismos de formación permanente sobre derechos humanos.
