Resumen
El Derecho de ser informado y de informar ha experimentado una auténtica revolución en cuanto a lo que se refiere al actual inmenso elenco de posibilidades. Si la liberación de los servicios de la información experimentó un paso decisivo con la apertura de la oferta informativa, la irrupción de Internet, y su inabarcable inmensidad de fuentes de información, ha terminado por sacralizar aquella tesis de Galeano en la que aseguraba que cada vez son más los que tienen el derecho de escuchar y de mirar, pero cada vez son menos los que tienen el privilegio de informar, opinar y crear.
Este tipo de Derecho sui generis parece haber terminado transformando en los últimos años el Derecho fundamental de acceso a la información, y a informar, en una dictadura de la palabra y la imagen única que, este autor, consideraba aún más
devastadora que aquella surgida del modelo del partido único.
No solo por los riesgos que implica la divulgación de la falsedad; también por imponer un modo de vida que tiene por ciudadano ejemplar aquel consumidor dócil y el espectador pasivo que parece haber sido moldeado al capricho del modelo de la sociedad de la información comercial.
Un buen ejemplo de ello lo podemos encontrar en la gestión mediática de la crisis sanitaria en torno al COVID-19. Una epidemia con orígenes remotos pero que ha terminado por propagarse infinitamente más rápido de lo que ha pretendido la contención mediática con el fin de tranquilizar a la ciudadanía y tratar de asegurar la continuidad de los mercados. El resultado de esa maniobra ha propiciado el desastre y las dramáticas consecuencias que todos ahora sufrimos.
The Right to be informed and to inform has undergone a real revolution in what refers to the current vast range of possibilities. The liberation of the information services underwent a decisive step with the opening of the informative offer, but the arrival of the Internet, and its immeasurable immensity of information sources, has ended up forging Galeano’s thesis in which he assured that more and more people have the right to listen and look, but fewer and fewer people have the privilege to report, think and create. This type of law sui generis seems to have ended up transforming in recent years the fundamental right of access to information and to inform, into a dictatorship of the word and the unique image that Galeano considered even more devastating than that arising from a single-party system. Not only because of the risks involved in spreading falsehood; also for imposing a way of life that states as an exemplary citizen a docile consumer and a passive spectator who seems to have been molded at the whim of the commercial information society model. A good example of this is the media management of the health crisis around COVID-19. An epidemic with remote origins but which has ended up spreading infinitely more quickly than the media had intended in order to reassure citizens and try to ensure the continuity of the markets. All this has generated the disaster and the dramatic consequences that we are all suffering.
