This paper examines three transitions in space concerning the labor of the journalists over time as it seeks to reflect on the current deterioration of their professional work conditions. In the first transition, we look to the past to analyze the moment when writers left their houses to venture the space of the streets, prefiguring the emergence of the journalist. In the second, we delineate the appearance of the first offices as the writers moved from the street space to the work space. In the third, we analyze the extent to what the problems of the modern metropolis and its communicational fluxes push the journalists back into their houses compromising their health in the process. This paper purposes a theoretical approach, regarding the history of Journalism, Sociology and Philosophy studies. We seek to reflect on the deterioration of the current work conditions of the journalists by looking into their pioneer urban experiences. We intend to contribute to the theoretical and epistemological debates of the journalism and to reflect on their practice and their mental and physical health.
