Type: article
Abstract: This study, entitled “(In)effectiveness of Television Journalism at Home Office in an Emergency Context: a look from Information Sources in Mozambique”, aims to understand the viability of journalism carried out remotely (home office) in Mozambique, amid the emergency of Covid-19 pandemic. The authors use reflections from other authors such as the cases of Domingos Amaral and Nelson Traquina, just to name a few, aiming to deepen understanding to respond to the concern (problem) about the effectiveness in producing journalistic content in home format office in the Mozambican context. The methodology is qualitative and quantitative in nature (Content Analysis), with data collection being carried out among participants to investigate the extent to which journalism explored sources of information in the home office modality in Mozambique. The results indicated that the STV newsroom used both the home office and the traditional method to produce reports, highlighting the importance of new technologies for the work of journalist teams during the health crisis. Journalists, when faced with the need to adapt their work routines, maintained their activities amid emergency measures and there was no need for face-to-face meetings with information sources, making it possible to produce information to feed their news reports.
