Abstract
In this article, the authors propose new ways to classify how Data Journalism is being used in Brazilian newspapers. After having observed how data is presented on news pieces in online newspapers from all of the country, this study shows there are many different approaches, ranging from what is considered the typical data journalism pieces, which can be found on Folha de Sao Paulo, O Globo and Estado de S. Paulo, to what is considered here as “journalism with data”, were the data is not on the center of the story. Methodologically, the research monitored 48 online newspapers during 5 months and analyzed 2.296 news pieces, in which we were able to observe the main skills needed to produce data journalism: investigative competences (data search and treatment), interpretative competences (how to tell the story and show the relations between the data) and communicative competences (data visualizations as a way to facilitate the understanding of the story). Keywords: Data Journalism, CAR, Data Visualization.
