The emergence of the hypermediatized narrator

This article is part of the reflections that we have carried out (Soster, 2023, 2024, 2025) around the existence, from a typological point of view, of distinct narrative extracts within the scope of the devices that make up the media-communicational system in what it has of journalistic. We refer to the existence of modern (Benjamin, 2012), postmodern (Santiago, 2002) and mediatized (Soster, 2025) narrators. But also to the subsumption that the processuality of mediatization, especially from what Verón (2013) called the "access revolution", allows the emergence of a new extract, which we are calling, from Carlón (2020), the hypermediatized narrator. Understanding what the hypermediatized narrative condition means implies observing, first, that hypermediatization, from Carlón's (2020) perspective, represents the current stage of the process of mediatization of society, marked by the way in which meanings circulate and how interactions between different actors are established in media discursivity.
