Siguiendo al flautista. Framing del independentismo catalán en las votaciones de 2014 y 2015

The debate about the independence of Catalonia became the main theme of the Catalonian regional elections of 27 September 2015. A year earlier, on November 9, 2014, there had been a controversial referendum on the same subject. In this research the informative representations of both electoral calls made by major newspapers of Madrid and Catalonia were contrasted. A quantitative content analysis was conducted to calculate descriptive and inferential statistics, which showed the utmost importance given to this issue during the period of the election campaign. Besides the emergence of new sources, such as economic and international actors, were detected. The antagonistic news framing among the Catalonian and Madrid newspapers remained.

Jóvenes universitarios, medios de comunicación y violencia de género. Una aproximación cuantitativa en torno a los estudiantes de Periodismo

espanolIntroduccion. Tomando como base la teoria de la responsabilidad social de los medios y las investigaciones sobre jovenes, violencia de genero y medios de comunicacion, se estudia el conocimiento y las distorsiones que el estudiante universitario de Periodismo tiene en relacion a la violencia de genero y su tratamiento informativo. Metodologia. Tras la puesta en marcha de la iniciativa #MAS COMPROMISO, llevada a cabo con motivo del 25N, se realizo una encuesta entre los estudiantes del Grado de Periodismo de la Universidad de Valladolid. Los resultados se analizaron cuantitativamente con el programa SPSS, obteniendose datos estadisticos tanto descriptivos como inferenciales. Resultados. Se observa que las iniciativas en contra de la violencia machista generan compromiso entre los estudiantes. Se detectan distorsiones, tanto en hombres como mujeres, en cuestiones fundamentales como la definicion de violencia de genero. Las alumnas se muestran menos favorables a considerar importantes y a poner en practica las recomendaciones de expertos y admiten las denuncias falsas como una de las causas de que las iniciativas vinculadas a la sensibilizacion contra la violencia de genero generen en ocasiones rechazo social. Conclusiones. Los resultados demuestran la efectividad de estas acciones en la formacion especializada de los periodistas, aunque tambien una mayor reactancia de las mujeres ante la representacion mediatica de la violencia de genero y las actividades de sensibilizacion en torno a ella.
