This article looks at the crisis of classic people-centered news journalism. The information revolution has led to a devaluation of the superlative values ​​of the conventional journalistic industry, and the displacement of its hegemony in aspects such as intense and rapid coverage of a subject or a geographic area, access to high sources of information, and the control of the distribution and generation of content. At the same time, people have found new environments in the virtual ecosystem through which they can assume active roles in the public communication of information. In this context, it is argued that journalism, in order to survive as a professional field, is called upon to reimagine its classic functioning paradigm and rethink the role of the journalist, return to communication, increase their professional identity features in the face of the proliferation of misinformation and, mainly, enrich and diversify in people their forms of participation.
