El Comercio from Gijón: a local newspaper about the coal question around the World War I
Abstract
Regional press is often representative of the economic interests of local groups that determine its editorial line. In some cases, they do it in a general manner and in others, in a straightforward and involved way. The latter is what happens with the coal problem and the newspaper El Comercio from Gijón in the World War I and the 1920s. However, this is a time when the mass print media in general, and this newspaper in particular, are reinforced, presenting themselves as publications solely concerned with the common good.Downloads
