This article analyses the development of digital information competence with journalism as a didactic tool. A review of the educational regulation and digital competence is carried out, as well as its relationship with media literacy. Different authors defend the need to train students with critical and reflexive capacity, so as the access and the compression of the information are fundamental. Thus, our approach places journalism as a didactic tool in the classroom for all subjects and raises the possibility of a specific subject linked to digital information literacy and media literacy. To justify this study, 107 teachers from 32 secondary schools in Seville, who have participated in the project "The Press in Schools", have been surveyed. The fundamental objective is to demonstrate that media literacy is an important axis of digital information competence and that it is directly related to the comprehension of journalistic content.
