Abstract

The present study is limited to knowledge in the field of journalism and mass media. It focuses on detecting, outlining, defining the stages of the media information analysis process. Four stages of the analytical process are delineated: understanding the topic (problem definition), establishing facts and generating hypotheses, processing information/raw data, and developing the analytical product. The first three are explained in detail, the fourth, being complex and laborious, is to be detailed in a subsequent research.
