## Comunicação

As contribuições de Tuchman foram além da sociologia, tendo escrito artigos e livros que influenciaram a área da comunicação, como o seu livro Making News: A Study in the Construction of Reality no qual acrescentou idéias para a teoria do Newsmaking. Tuchman afirma que objetivo declarado de qualquer órgão de informação é fornecer relatos dos acontecimentos significativos e interessantes e que para esses órgãos produzirem notícias, devem obedecer a três premissas básicas. São elas:
* tornar relevante um fato até então desconhecido;
* tentar relatar os acontecimentos de forma clara, evitando refletir valores pessoais;
* organizar, temporal e espacialmente, o trabalho, de modo que os acontecimentos noticiáveis possam seguir uma linha de apresentação.
