From the Actor Network Theory and the Cartography of Controversies method (LATOUR, 2005; LEMOS, 2013), we map the changes promoted by the mobile phone in the journalism network, based on ethnographic experiences, during protests against the realization of the World Cup, in Rio de Janeiro, in 2014 and during the protests of the Black Lives Matter movement, in New York City, in 2015. From the empirical material, the concepts of animism and of translation organize reflections on the journalistic procedure, from the definition of news as an attempt to control the world, or a kind of collectivizing control (WAGNER, 2010), which invents the world from the reduction of difference. The opposite would be the differentiating invention, in which communication happens through difference, in a translation-betrayal. We then ventured the possibility of thinking a journalism in equivocation (VIVEIROS DE CASTRO, 2002; 2015), creating space for the proposal of a differentiating theory of journalism.
