LEON LEON, MARCO ANTONIO. "Sentence Executed": The Chacal de Nahueltoro, A Media Construction in Vea Magazine. Chile, 1960-1963. Anu. colomb. hist. soc. cult. [online]. 2020, vol.47, n.2, pp.181-218. Epub 20-Mar-2021. ISSN 0120-2456. https://doi.org/10.15446/achsc.v47n2.86158.
Through the study of the crime committed against Rosa Rivas and her five daughters in the rural sector of Nahueltoro, in central-southern Chile, in August of i960, the article seeks to understand the construction and media transformation of the criminal, carried out by a specific print magazine, the weekly Vea. In its sensationalist tabloid style, it not only referred to the protagonist of the bloody deed as Chacal de Nahueltoro, but also re-contextualized his life and actions through diverse strategies for the presentation of textual and visual contents, and ended up transforming him into a victim of society, an argument that acquired even more sense when he was finally shot to death in April of 1963.
