The Reporter of ETA Attacks in Press Photos
Abstract
The first images of an ETA bombing were published in 1968 following the Melitón Manzanas assassination. From this date, the photographic representation of the reporter of these facts in the daily press has undergone various changes in its function. Through a chronological evolution, this research will observe the different roles played by professionals in developing their mission as well as their location. The study sample consists of photographs published in newspapers considered traditional such as La Gaceta del Norte, Hierro y El Correo, and others which appeared at the beginning of the Transition, including Deia and Egin of regional coverage and El País of national coverage.Downloads
