Descripción
Sumario:The objective of this article is to present, in an approximate way, mediatic representations built by open broadcast television in Salta through the analysis of an audiovisual piece of Channel 7 that incorporates the voice of a trans woman during the broadcast for International Working Women Day of 2016. In order to achieve it, the theoretical and methodological framework is nourished by the intersection of discourse studies and social representations, taking up contributions from social anthropology, socio-semiotics and gender theories. The main question refers to what are the conditions of possibility for certain voices to be “audible”, certain bodies “visible” and certain problems “spoken” in the media, taking into account the changes that are generated in the parameters of “social tolerability” (Arancibia, 2012) in a determined political, social and historical context. The hypothesis holds that the voice of trans women bursts in a sub-exposed way into binary logics in the field of mediatic interlocution (Grimson, 2001) to dispute the power of hegemonic representation over “the feminine”.
