Abstract

This article presents the results of a study that analyzes the news coverage given by the Spanish dailies El País, El Mundo, ABC, La Vanguardia and La Razón to the approval of the new smoking ban in December 2010. The content analysis conducted on the news and opinion articles published on the subject over a sixmonth period –according to the methodology of framing– shows that in most of the articles the prevailing message was against the smoking ban, noting that the new law would bring more harm than good to the Spanish society.
