Abstract
The creation of large transnational media groups requires editors who are capable of dealing with the language barrier. But this results in complications in tracing a line of demarcation between the functions and responsibilities of each post. In their search for profitability, the companies sacrifice one of the posts and we encounter the existence of a new level of loss in news objectivity. The author of this article draws on his professional experience in the CNN head office in the USA to explain this problem; he concentrates on the case of this news chain that reaches a worldwide public exceeding one billion people.
