Abstract

This paper develops a study on the framing of the Spanish press information about the protests of miners produced in June 2012. To this end, this research uses a content analysis on news treatment through the dailies El Pais, El Mundo and ABC. The frames of these dailies show a process of social construction by the press that is interpreted in a negative or positive, depending on the ideological structure of the observer. These frames show the unequal news coverage and prove the ideological orientation of a event which has caused major changes in the Spanish sociocultural structure in the past.
