Resumen

Internet has revolutionized the situation of the communication of Science. Journalists are no longer the only actors in the production and dissemination of information aimed at a general public. Scientists themselves, using the tools provided by the web (Brossard, 2013), communicate directly to the audience dodging journalists as mediators (Peters et al., 2014). Several studies have approached these matters, although all this research is scattered and lacks a connecting thread that puts into perspective the contributions made. Therefore, in this article a systematic review of 71 works describes the situation of science journalists in the online environment and how this channel has transformed his professional practice. It also analyses the new role of some scientists who are acting as communicators. Finally, we establish how relations are between scientists and journalists in the process of science communication in the web. The study shows that scientists and journalists keep distances, have different judgments about how to articulate communication, and use their own means and their own codes to reach the same audience.
