Keywords:
Imagens; Incêndios; AcontecimentoAbstract
This analytical work discusses the perambulation of images in media circulation and their impacts on social worlds. To this end, we describe the occurrence and extraction of the empirical from the cases: drought/fires in Brazil (August 2024) and the fires in the State of California, in the United States of America (January 2025). We analyze, a priori, the occurrence of two phenomena, one more widespread, in the Brazilian case, and the second, of a more restricted field and nourished by news values that have extrapolated meanings to other cultures and social worlds.
