This paper presents the results from a study on contemporary practices in Journalism about the use of surveillance and amateur videos to build TV news broadcast narratives. Inter-views with TV journalists were interpret based on ethnography-inspired methods employed in newsmaking researches, and aimed to understand how their journalism practices are affected by technological challenges, which have been providing new means for the Journal-ism field. Based on scholars from Journalism theories, this study intends to explain in which ways the journalism’s ethics has been impacted by new shapes imposed by information and communication digital technologies, and their rapid transformation.
