Resumen
La consolidación de los medios migrantes digitales ha transformado la producción y el consumo de información periodística, planteando nuevos desafíos para la credibilidad en los entornos digitales. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la relación entre la información periodística difundida en fanpages de medios migrantes digitales y la credibilidad percibida por agremiados sindicales. Se realizó una investigación cuantitativa, no experimental, transversal y correlacional con 109 participantes del Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Universidad Nacional de Santa. La información se obtuvo mediante un cuestionario validado por expertos y con adecuada confiabilidad (α = 0,866). Los resultados evidenciaron una correlación positiva alta entre ambas variables (ρ = 0,722; p < 0,001), destacando la transmisión en vivo como la dimensión con mayor asociación con la credibilidad. Se concluye que la calidad de los contenidos periodísticos constituye un factor esencial para fortalecer la confianza en los medios digitales.
