REYNA GARCIA, Víctor Hugo. Mexican digital journalism studies: two decades of scattered research. Comun. soc [online]. 2021, vol.18, e7846.  Epub June 20, 2022. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2021.7846.

This article analyzes the evolution of Mexican digital journalism studies. To achieve this goal, it carries out a systematic review of the empirical research on this country’s digital journalism developed between 2000 and 2020. Identifying four dominant research lines (hypertextuality and interactivity, digitization and technological convergence, role performance and business models), it exposes the continuity deficit of each one of them and the scattered nature of the studies that make up this research subfield.

Keywords : Journalism studies; digital journalism; Mexico.
