Abstract

The genesis of digital journalism is guided by its own structure, where the main characteristics that modify this profession are present today’s interactivity are present been evolving into new formats of interaction, participation, production, relationship and conversation. This research was driven by the following question: To what extent does the Mozambican digital newspaper O País respect interactivity, as a characteristic of digital journalism? To answer this question, a content analysis and electronic data collection technique were performed on a sample of a total of sixty articles extracted from the digital newspaper O País digital published in August, September and October 2022. Considering the various proposals by Zamith (2011) for analysis of interactivity in digital jourmalism (exchange of emails between users and journalists, comments published alongside the news, discussion forums, instant communication, rooms, surveys or voting systems, content valuation, publication of user information, interactive multimedia journalistic content) from the research it appears that Mozambican digital journalism still has very low indices regarding interactivity.
