ABSTRACT The term “data journalism” arrived to newsrooms some time ago, and now every news media wants be part of it. In a small country like Uruguay -despite the isolated efforts of some companies, NGOs and government agencies- it has still not found its place in the media. This research tries to clarify the concept of data journalism in order to break down the state of the art in Uruguay, through interviews with journalists, members of NGOs and members of the academic staff of the universities where the future journalists are being formed. Thus being able to point out the impulses and obstacles data journalism has encountered in order to foresee its possible future.

Palabras clave : new media; digital journalism; journalism in Uruguay; scientific journalism; data journalism.
