Resumo(s)
Foram necessários 70 anos para que surgisse em Portugal uma newsmagazine que tornasse este segmento da imprensa, “inventado” nos Estados Unidos, em 1923, com a Time, uma realidade duradoura e de êxito. Lançada em 1993, a Visão já ultrapassou as duas décadas, sempre como líder de mercado. Mas a história da newsmagazine portuguesa não começa nem acaba com a Visão. Esta investigação identifica 15 títulos publicados entre 1967 e 2014 enquadráveis como revistas semanais de informação geral.
Procurou-se traçar um retrato estrutural de cada uma das newsmagazines encontradas: Vida Mundial (1967); Observador (1971); Opção (1976); Novo Observador (1978); Mais (1982); Grande Reportagem (1984); Sábado – I Série (1988); Face (1989); Época (1992); Visão (1993); Factos – I Série (1997); Factos – II Série (1998); Focus (1999); Tempo (2003); e Sábado – II Série (2004). A análise percorreu as edições mais significativas e procurou dados sobre direções, administrações, equipas, projetos gráficos e estatutos editorais. Deu-se também atenção às capas, uma vez que estas se constituem como dispositivos de comunicação sedutores, que condicionam o sucesso em banca das publicações.
Antes do trabalho de reconstrução do caminho português trilhado pela newsmagazine, explanam-se os enquadramentos do objeto. Começa-se por situar a revista no panorama mediático, procurando as raízes deste tipo de imprensa, assim como as características e as especificidades que coloca ao campo do jornalismo e à academia. Desbrava-se, de seguida, o conceito de newsmagazine e propõe-se o seu entendimento como “jorvista”, isto é, como um tipo de publicação híbrida que reúne influências de jornais e de revistas, congregando elementos de dois universos que correm paralelos fora deste elo excecional. Caracteriza-se, ainda, a capa de revista, objeto situado entre o marketing, a cultura e o jornalismo. Pelo facto de pertencer a um título de informação geral, a capa de newsmagazine tem responsabilidades acrescidas. A sua análise ajudou a enriquecer o retrato deste tipo de revista em Portugal.
It took 70 years before a newsmagazine was founded in Portugal to make this press segment, “invented” in the United States in 1923 with Time, a lasting and successful reality. Launched in 1993, Visão has lasted for over two decades, always as market leader. But the history of the Portuguese newsmagazine does not begin or end with Visão. This research has identified 15 titles published between 1967 and 2014 which can be classified as weekly general information magazines. We strove to make a structural depiction of each of the newsmagazines found: Vida Mundial (1967); Observador (1971); Opção (1976); Novo Observador (1978); Mais (1982); Grande Reportagem (1984); Sábado – I Série (1988); Face (1989); Época (1992); Visão (1993); Factos – I Series (1997); Factos – II Series (1998); Focus (1999); Tempo (2003); and Sábado – II Series (2004). The analysis covered the more relevant issues and sought data on publishers, editors, teams, graphic projects and editorial charters. Attention was also paid to the covers, since they take on the role of seductive communication apparatuses which sway the success of the publications at the newsstand. Before embarking on the labour of reconstructing the Portuguese path trodden by the newsmagazine, we outline the frameworks of the object. We start by placing the magazine in the media context, searching for the roots of this kind of press, as well as the features and specificities it presents to the field of journalism and to academia. Then, the concept of newsmagazine is discussed, and we propose that it be considered as a “newszine”, in other words, a type of hybrid publication which gathers influences of newspapers and magazines, combining elements of two universes which run parallel outside this exception link. We also characterize the cover of the magazine, an object located at the crossroads of marketing, culture and journalism. By belonging to a general information publication, the cover of the news magazine has added responsibilities. Analysing it has helped enrich the portrayal of this type of magazine in Portugal.
