Resumo: How do Sergipe's youth access journalistic content through smartphones? That is the first question of this essay. To answer it, the chosen scenario for the research was a state school, located in Aracaju, State of Sergipe, where the observation and interviewing process were made with ten high school senior students. The goal was to find out if those digital natives – people who have grown up submerged in digital culture, following up the emergence and development of technologies – are actual journalistic content readers or merely users inserted in the cyberspace. In other words, if those young people are just surfing through content without taking any action or reflecting about it, or if they have a more comprehensive reading, reflecting about what they read, considering the new digital environments created from mobile comunication platforms, in particular the production and flowing of journalistic content in smartphones. Six hypotheses were brought up in the research: 1) Schools offer a favorable environment for using mobile comunication technology – smartphones – for educational and informative purposes; 2) Young people have smartphones as their main source of information, with less use of other tecnologies and media types; 3) Young people don't immerse nor look for new information about what they read daily; 4) The new technologies made possible for the young to take part, create new content and be more critical about what they access; 5) Young people in digital environment are cautious and do not give credibility to every content spread on the internet; 6) School environment has influence and motivates the young to obtain journalystic information. In the course of the research, other questions were made, such as 'what' young people absorbe in the journalistic sphere while using smartphones and 'why' they choose it. For that, the method of approach chosen was the inductive one and the procedure method was the observation of ethnographic inspiration, in order to allow a more in - depth look at the studied object. An observation work of ethnographic inspiration, aiming to make an in-depth look about the study subject possible. The chosen techniques for the data collection were the non-participant direct observation and in-depth semi-structured interviewing. The results confirmed that the smartphone is the main means of reading journalistic content for young people, being a tool that stimulates and facilitates the search for information. It was possible to collect expressions that indicated an active stance of the youngster in this reading, with a critical eye and motivation for discoveries in interaction with other young people.
