Abstract
The narrative renovation has been a constant throughout history, fed by successive literary and journalistic movements. In the third millennium a new phase starts, with the characteristics of the complexity of the network society and the current technologies as actors in this turn. The definitive rupture of the sequential story has led to experimentation with narrative models based on hypertextuality, multimedia and interactivity. Evolution has been strongly dependant and affected by the past, without major upheavals in the fundamental, although driven by some disruptive dimensions in communication processes. The appearance of journalistic narratives has been guided in these last two decades by the combination of creativity and innovation in an increasingly mobile, convergent and transmedia context. The result is an expansion of models with unequal uses and consumption but enriching the narrative outlook.
