Abstract

The objective of this article is to demonstrate the media’s influence on society, specifically how they contribute to the negative attitudes towards immigrants. This analysis begins with how media influences the rejection of immigrants worldwide in order to note the peculiarities of the Chilean context, particularly its relationships with Bolivians, Peruvians, and Mapuche. The article ends by presenting potential solutions for the recognition and acceptance of intercultural differences.
