The present text reflects on the particularities of programming and its contents, describes the effects of digitization in television system and delves into the political and business influences in a technology framework of multiplatform communication.

La televisión pasa por varios cambios en las últimas tres décadas, primero la aparición de la televisión por cable multicanales y segundo la convergencia con Internet y con ello las opciones de entretenimiento, información y opinión. Por el contrario, permanece anclada a la concentración de los canales en abierto -el monopolio- que se asocia con la baja calidad de los contenidos y la financiación de los partidos políticos a cambio de importantes contratos de publicidad con el Estado. La televisión pública, por su lado, está falta de apoyos y mantiene un claro retraso en su desarrollo; compensada únicamente por la convergencia con Internet y algunos contratos de coproducción con organismos no gubernamentales. El interés del artículo está en los hitos de la televisión y el estado del entretenimiento y la información de los guatemaltecos actualmente, pasando por la oferta televisiva de los canales más populares y su adaptación a los tiempos nuevos audiovisuales. 2017-12-26 2022-03-22T14:36:28Z 2022-03-22T14:36:28Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://comunicacionymedios.uchile.cl/index.php/RCM/article/view/45204 10.5354/0719-1529.2017.45204 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/78666 spa eng https://comunicacionymedios.uchile.cl/index.php/RCM/article/view/45204/50459 https://comunicacionymedios.uchile.cl/index.php/RCM/article/view/45204/51499 Derechos de autor 2017 Comunicación y Medios application/pdf application/pdf Universidad de Chile.
