La Encerrona

http://laencerrona.pe
Daily podcast (Monday to Friday) with current news about Peru. In 20 minutes your listeners will be ready to start the day. It is broadcast on multiple platforms. Aimed at a literally captive audience, on March 16, 2020, Marco Sifuentes began broadcasting La Encerrona on his social networks, an independent mini-newscast that, like a kind of antiviral, dedicated itself to combating fake news and disinformation circulating in cyberspace related to the coronavirus pandemic. But in a world of misinformation bubbles, confirmation biases and personalized content, the only possible response is journalism, in that sense La Encerrona went on to discuss all kinds of topics. The morning mini-newscast is divided into three blocks: FIRST BLOCK: Today's story. An opinion, an explanation or a renegade on the topic of the day. SECOND BLOCK: The headlines that are viral or that should be. News with context. THIRD BLOCK: Recommendations for life, support for community causes, peace of mind. The moment of the hug. In addition, they generate content for social networks and on weekends, opinion columns.
