SANCHEZ VIGIL, Juan Miguel; OLIVERA ZALDUA, María  y  MARCOS RECIO, Juan Carlos. Photography in the daily Spanish free press: Application and use in 20 Minutos, Qué and Adn. Investig. bibl [online]. 2012, vol.26, n.58, pp.101-120. ISSN 2448-8321.

The free press exerts a significant social impact, as it and carries its urgent informative function through hard-hitting headlines, punchy articles and news briefs. Distributed at key transportation facilities, coffee shops, cultural centers and libraries, these unique media and the photography they contain have not been extensively studied to date. This paper provides an exhaustive study of the application and use of photography in three nationally distributed free daily newspapers (20 Minutos, Qué and Adn). The study assesses the number of pictures published, their origins or authors, the relationship between photo and text, the use of photos in advertising, as well as formats and photo distribution within newspaper's sections.
