Abstract

This article proposes an international theoretical overview of the participatory journalism. This openness has influenced on a diverse media ecosystem, theoretically more transparent, but also with an unpredictable and fluid nature. At this stage journalism has lost control and exclusivity of content and has been forced to open its doors to the collaborative production and active audiences. These new publics have caused the revival of the profession, the emergence of new ways of influence, limitations, responsibilities and concerns that mark the present and the future of journalism.
