SALGADO ANDRADE, Eva. The Journalistic Construction of the March for the One-year Anniversary of Ayotzinapa: A Comparative Study of the International Media Coverage. Comun. soc [online]. 2019, vol.16, e6736.  Epub Nov 30, 2019. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v2019i0.6736.

On the first anniversary of the disappearance of 43 students in Ayotzinapa, several community-based organizations coordinated a series of events that culminated with a large march in Mexico City on September 26, 2015. This paper presents a comparative analysis of the manner in which this march was constructed in the headlines and principal photographs of nine newspapers with significant histories as political actors in their respective countries: Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Spain, France, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
