Evolution of immersive journalism in Spain, from its inception to the COVID-19 pandemic
Keywords:
immersive journalism, Spain, COVID-19Abstract
Immersive journalism in Spain has been explored since 2015 as well as in the great international references. However, that "boom"began its rapid decline from 2016. This text analyzes all this process and evolution that at present leaves very few media that continue elaborating contents in 360º in
an irregular way and experimentally, which missed the opportunity to exploit the immersive narrative to cover diverse events associated to the pandemic by COVID-19, which has demanded the elaboration of truthful, innovative informative contents, that narrow the relation between the audience and the news.
