Infotainment as a Media Strategy - The Extra Newspaper and Humour in the News

This work reveals that entertainment elements combined with journalistic content positively attract the reader's attention, facilitating the understanding of the text in a pleasurable way. In order to streamline the "qualitative value" in journalistic publications, it is noted that, currently, periodicals use infotainment strategies in order to provide clarity and fun to the reader, in addition to giving the population the opportunity to actively participate in the construction of the news. We will evaluate a specific object: the character "Zé Lador", found in the pages of the Rio de Janeiro newspaper "Extra", in order to show the effectiveness of infotainment strategies combined with interactivity between reader, newspaper and news.
