description The example of Detective magazine shows that in a media culture, non-fiction texts can induce different uses determined by the editorial reading pact. As a thematic periodical focused on crime, Detective is not bound to the informational issues of the news press. As an entertaining reading, it engages, alongside the journalistic reading pact, in an aesthetic relationship, playing with the conventions of fiction. It plays with literary conventions imitating crime fiction models. He bases his stories on a verisimilitude largely defined by these fictional references. Such choices are facilitated by the circulation, in the media culture, between fictional and non-fictional narratives. Fiction is constantly nourished by real events; in return, it tends to give a readable form to real events.
