CASTANEDA TENORIO, Enrique; HERNANDEZ DE GANTE, Alicia  and  HUERTA CASCO, Ricardo Ibrahim. The Congress Channel, an analysis of its achievements and limitations after twenty years of broadcasting. Tla-melaua [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.45, pp.104-128. ISSN 2594-0716.

The following academic work analyzes the importance of the Congress Channel. Since, it represents a way of mass communication that modifies, builds and influences public perception and opinion. In this sense, the institutional design of the Congress Channel is broken through the current regulations. The broadcast has to include all the parliamentary fractions of the Congress of the Union, in its maximum body of government. The duty was to provide an insight of how the Congress carries out its activities. The lack of interest to innovate as to produce and present a program that can interest the audience. It is clear that, as long as there are no structural and political modifications in the Congress Channel, its audience view, projection and impact will be insignificant. In this way, it fails to fulfill its primary objective: the dissemination of parliamentary work.

Keywords : Channel of the Congress; means of communication; institutional design.
