Abstract

This article deals with the profile of Brazilian journalists in covering science specializing in São Paulo. The objective is to investigate some clues about the influence of profile journalist in the production of scientific information, as well as reflections on the quality of coverage. For this, a survey was conducted of the characteristics of professionals working in science journalism in the city of São Paulo, in magazines, newspapers and internet, as well as their opinions about the profile and coverage in science, through questionnaires with closed questions and open. It is non-probabilistic sample, for accessibility. The main result points to the specialized training as the main reason for change in the profile of the professionals, but that still does not reflect the quality of science coverage.
