Abstract

The journalistic way of writing is by itself quarrelsome. It has a good relationship with dramatic events, creating a tense and intense atmosphere. The risk becomes itself a central concept in the public debate. How can the democratic societies face and manage those realities? Some of the keys are the truth, open mind and confidence among all the actors involved.
