Abstract
Journalistic criticism articulated with experience is the core element of this paper that examines fragments of texts in which journalists talk about journalistic practices. If these practices have marked to some extent a reporter’s work, it is possible to observe them operating within the narratives in movements of affirmation or resistance created by the journalism itself. This text examines the answers given by journalists Ramón Lobo and Joe Sacco on Cuadernos de Cabul and Notas sobre Gaza, respectively, about journalistic processes of the edition, usually silenced in the daily environment of the newsroom. These readings move journalism from a hegemonic place where processes and controls are naturalized if they are not exposed enough. The intently listening to these narratives echoes important questions regarding the daily challenge of news reporting.
