Coverage that diverges · with one other country

BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Spain's government officials, including Antonio Sanz, Juanma Moreno, and Pedro Sánchez, dominate the narrative with their official statements, overshadowing the accounts of victims and local residents.

Spanish media show a preference for English-language and expatriate sources, with several articles emphasizing the foreign nationality of the victims, such as British and Belgian citizens, a theme that is less prominent in Spanish media outlets.

The Spanish press provides limited coverage of the underlying causes, merely mentioning the fallen power line without delving into the issues of prevention or land use planning in high-risk areas.
