The coverage of the Russian Revolution in the Spanish press
Abstract
This research deals with the coverage that the most important Spanish newspapers of that time showed during the first few days after the Russian Revolution. It also focuses on the treatement of news and opinions received, most of them through international news agencies. In the same way, the article presents the Russian events in the Spanish context of the political, economic and ideological events which were taking place in Spain at that moment. In spite of the scarcity of mass media and the subversive Russian revolutionary processs, the Spanish newspapers presented the events in a direct and descriptive way, without any assessment of the scope of them.
