Chile's
Journalists
Stop
Writing
Serious
News
Once Las Uhimas Noticias was considered a
dull,
old-fashioned
newspaper. That
all changed when
LUN
posted its newspaper
online and added a
page
view counter that tells editors which stories
are
the
most
popular.
Now LUN
is
Chile's
most
widely
read newspaper.
The
newspaper's employees call
it
a
revolution in
journalism,
but
critics
claim that
the
paper
no longer covers
"real
news."
Stories are
ranked
according to
"clicks"
and are
updated every
hour. Ifan
article
gets
a
lot
ofclicks, the
newspaper
continues the story.
If
an article
gets
only a
few clicks
or no
clicks at all, the story
is removed.
So
what
news
did
readers
choose to click on when
world
leaders
arrived
in
Santiago
for
an
important
trade summit meeting?
"Light
News"-one
of the top
stories was about where a US politician went to
dinner
and what
he
ate. Another popular story was about
whlch politicians
gave
the
best
tips to waiters.
Critics
say
that LUN no longer reports
serious
news.
Augustine
Edwards,
the managing
editor
disagrees.
Previously
the
journalists
decided what
stories appeared in the paper, but with Edward's new
approach, the readers make the choices. He feels
that
the
readers'
choices
are a
reflection
ofthe
changing
values and interests of
Chileans.
.
It's
good
for advertising, too. At
other
newspapers,
sales of
advertisements are
down,
but not
at
LtlN.
The newspaper
has
begun to
have
ads on its
website
that
include
animation,
as
well
as
actual TV
commercials.
One question
remains.
Only
an estimated
40o/o of the
country has
Internet
access,
and
not
all of
themrcad
LUN.
So are the readert
choices really a
reflection of the
changing values
and
interests
of
all
the
Chilean people?
