SOMOZA-SABATES, Isabel; PINEIRO-NAVAL, Valeriano  and  DOS-SANTOS-ABAD, Jenifer. Tourist information in Spanish and Mexican digital media during Covid-19. Convergencia [online]. 2023, vol.30, e19665.  Epub May 26, 2023. ISSN 2448-5799.  https://doi.org/10.29101/crcs.v30i0.19665.

In a context marked by the Covid-19 pandemic, this research focuses on the study of the informative treatment of tourism in Spain and Mexico; countries whose economies are nourished, at a high proportion, by the entertainment industry. For this purpose, a content analysis was conducted based on the observation of three digital media in Spain (El Mundo, El País and La Vanguardia) and another three in Mexico (El Universal, Milenio and Expansión). A sample of 524 news items related to tourism was collected from March 2020 to March 2022. The purpose of this work was to find out, longitudinally, how tourist information has been approached during the health crisis from the perspective of framing. The results indicate that negative economic issues and attribution of responsibility have marked the informative treatment of the press in tourism coverage.
