Abstract
This research focuses on the state of the art about the effects of the administration’s budget for Institutional Communication and Advertising in journalistic market, as a potential distortion for fair competitiveness. We review both the academic literature and mainstream newspapers discourses about this phenomenon. Comparing the coverage made by traditional newspapers and the native digital media, we identify a lack of attention both in established mainstream journalism and in academic research, in contrast with the strong criticism within these recently created digital newspapers.Downloads
