Resumo: The present article aims to understand the informational paths present in Bolsonarist groups on WhatsApp on two levels. First, we characterize the sources of information mobilized and what the prioritization of certain informational actors can mean in the political debate. Next, we conduct a specific analysis of YouTube as an informational source. Our results point to a minority role of traditional media as information sources. In addition, we identify a central role of the so-called influencers, which seems to point to a valorization of less institutionalized and more personal mediations of information. The analysis of the interaction between YouTube and WhatsApp revealed that the most shared YouTube links in Bolsonarist groups tend to: (1) have a higher number of likes; (2) be shared on WhatsApp as soon as they are published on YouTube; and (3) be taken offline (either by the users themselves or by the platforms) some time after being published.

En primer lugar, caracterizamos las fuentes de información movilizadas y lo que puede significar la priorización de determinados actores informativos en el debate político. A continuación, realizamos un análisis específico de YouTube como fuente informativa. Nuestros resultados apuntan a un papel minoritario de los medios tradicionales como fuentes de información. Además, identificamos un papel central de los llamados influencers, lo que parece apuntar a una valorización de las mediaciones informativas menos institucionalizadas y más personales. El análisis de la interacción entre YouTube y WhatsApp reveló que los enlaces de YouTube más compartidos en los grupos bolsonaristas tienden a: i) tener un mayor número de likes; ii) ser compartidos en WhatsApp tan pronto como se publican en YouTube; y iii) ser retirados (sea por los propios usuarios o por las plataformas) un tiempo después de ser publicados.O presente artigo tem por objetivo compreender os caminhos informativos acionados em grupos bolsonaristas no WhatsApp em dois níveis.
