This paper aims to consider the intersections between teachers and journalism, reconstruction from what is published about teachers in the newspapers, the predominating images of this professional. The texts analysis showed thar one of the resources used by journalists to project a positive image of theirselves is the cientific discourse, based on information sources, which reinforces the perspective that their speeches are objectiv representations of reality. Another conclusion we reached was that the teacher’s image is still under a negative perspective, added to it the increasing proposal of a substitution of these professionals as a resolution for the educational problems. In this paper we intend to analyse these two conclusions, firstly presenting data about the information sources use by journalism when it comes to education, and, secondly presenting the analysis of the texts and the senses constructed about teachers in the news nowadays.
