Abstract

Hypertext contributes to construct meanings in the digital newspaper. With hypertext, news web site associates contents and hierarchically organises the news. Hypertext either opens or closes the media to other sources, and characters; either promotes or hampers the participation of the interactive reader. With hypertext, the new medium communicates, interprets and gives opinion. However, many digital newspapers have hypertext only as an inevitable element to overturned contents from the printed newspaper. Thus, the medium is neither used in its own possibilities of intertextuality and interactivity, nor can copy accurately the hierarchical structure of the printed newspaper.We analyse the hypertextual structures and semantic links used by three digital newspapers.
