Summary: | In recent years, research in international communication has undergone some evolution that makes it a less focused field of communication for development and more exploded, dealing with several objects (media coverage, information technology and communication cultural diversity, etc.) and different geographical areas. The study of diasporic media online is part of these new research perspectives that researchers in international communication must explore. The present study aims to identify the motivations and analyzes the strategies used by these online diasporic media to influence the treatment of information on the African continent. A qualitative methodological approach based on semi-structured interviews allowed us to obtain interesting data on the will of some members of the African diaspora to have online media that can participate, through their content, to promote a new perspective on the socio-political news of the continent. This desire responds more specifically to a lack of transparency in the dissemination of socio-political information related to their geographical sphere of origin. |
