BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

The dominant climate framing: the UK government notes that articles consistently link the Andalusian wildfire to the climate crisis and continental warming, to the detriment of other local factors.

The London-based press shows a preference for institutional Spanish sources, such as the Andalusian government and regional minister, over direct testimony from those affected.

There is limited coverage of preventive measures or political responsibilities leading up to the disaster, with the focus instead on the human and meteorological toll.
