Los líderes políticos en la cobertura de las elecciones europeas de 2009 | The Political Figures in the Press Coverage of the 2009 European Elections Campaign
Main Article Content
Abstract
Resumen
Esta investigación presenta resultados acerca de los protagonistas políticos más relevantes de la cobertura informativa en prensa durante la campaña previa a las elecciones al Parlamento Europeo del 7 de junio de 2009. El método utilizado es un análisis de contenido cuantitativo aplicado a los dos principales rotativos nacionales, El País y El Mundo, durante los 15 días de duración de la campaña. Además de aportar datos sobre algunos aspectos formales de la cobertura, este artículo muestra la presencia de los líderes de los principales partidos en comparación con otros protagonistas políticos. Asimismo este estudio demuestra, a través del estudio de la aparición de los líderes políticos en la cobertura, que los comicios europeos no suscitaron interés por sí mismos, sino que, por el contrario, fueron abordados por los citados periódicos en clave nacional.
Abstract
This article shows results of the press coverage of the most prominent political figures during the 2009 European Elections campaign. A content analysis was applied to the whole coverage of the two most influential and important national Spanish dailies, El País and El Mundo, during the fifteen days of the campaign. This piece of research also aims to identify if the European Elections were considered interesting in themselves by the press or, on the contrary, if the coverage was focussed on national elections, as some other studies have shown.
