- Abstract
The Simpsons has become one of the most unique and emblematic fiction series in recent decades, and a benchmark in contemporary popular culture. Its critical and parodic capacity, not often without mordacity, on current lifestyle and the role of the media in our societies is one of its qualities. This article specifically addresses the representation in the series of informative journalism and children’s television, opting for a qualitative methodology, through the analysis of speech. Among its conclusions, it highlights the role of television as socializer while corrupter of the social and cultural life stands. The show presents the informers, by way of parody and social criticism, as characters away from any journalistic ethic and those responsible for entertainment and child education as figures opposed to the correct emotional and intellectual development of children.
