Abstract

In the society we live in multimidiatica the diversity of discourses (oral, written, visual and multimodal) in politics, as well as other modes of meaning production, has radically transformed the enunciative modalities and procedures. These changes take place not only in the order of language but mainly in order of expression. Thus, we analyze how a contemporary electronic media support, YouTube, through a variety of multimodal texts, which dao to circulate as discourses pamphleteers - text short and violent attacks that an institution or an acquaintance - as distinct from both the satire of controversy, however derisive constitutively construct a written history of the Brazilian presidential campaign very different from the official history published in editorials, articles in the opinion, in policy analysis, circulating in Brazilian newspapers and magazines, for example.
