      Social legitimacy is based on beliefs structured as narratives which derive their efficacy from their capacity to render themselves as homologies of the order they must satisfy. The distinctive feature of an incorrect divulgation of science in audiovisual media is its organization of the world within a system of explanations and forecasts in narrative formats to describe and show the same, while pretending to be objective, hiding the doxy of legitimization. In addition, the postmodern logic of divulgation demands a spectacular, trivial, serialized and ephemeral version of knowledge. These emerging characteristics in the field define neo-positive-ized science.
