• Abstract:

  This work is a proposal for newsworthiness criteria as parameters for selecting subjects on Catholic religious agendas. The investigation is based on theoretical concepts about the news production chain process, with more specificity in the attributes of journalistic information and the discretion in selecting the topics to be disseminated by the communication professional. The proposition is also based on theoretical foundations that are found in the common field of the interdisciplinarity of communication and theology. The perspective adopted in this work to understand theological phenomena is based on the theoretical contribution from the perspective of the Catholic religion, that is, systematic and dogmatic theologians and Catholic documents.
