Abstract: Journalistic practise has placed a question-mark over the traditional beliefs in this field, which are often thought to be too dogmatic. Examples of this desire for change are the reassessement of the use of the first person, the revindicating of more creative formulas in journalistic writing (as in new Journalism)or the tendency to neglect the cultivation of elegant prose in favour of colloquial languaje. The author points out, however, that these changes should not lead to the abandoning of the traditional apprenticeship in written journalism, and also that al all costs confusion between journalism and literature should be avoided. If this confusion becomes consolidated, journalism will lose its own intrinsic objective.
