In September 2015, all UN member states announced the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of the 2030 Agenda. This is a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and improve the lives and prospects of people around the world. This paper aims to determine the most relevant characteristics of the discourse about this action plan, proposed by seven digital newspapers with the highest readership in Spain during the eight years following the enactment of the initiative. On the one hand, a statistical analysis has been carried out of the published articles, as well as of most-mentioned entities, industries, regions, themes and people or public agents. On the other hand, a computerised linguistic corpus analysis was carried out, showing the main word associations made by each headline and the length of the corresponding journalistic pieces. The main results reveal a generalised increase of the number of news items, especially from 2020 onwards. Furthermore, there is a clear prominence of the social dimension of sustainability and sustainable development, in contrast to the scarce relevance of the ecological and environmental aspect in most of the digital newspapers. The conclusion is that the Spanish press discourse on SDGs and the 2030 Agenda is heterogeneous and, furthermore, that there is currently no example that fully complies with the values of sustainable journalism. Similarly, the coverage of this roadmap does not have long-format journalistic pieces to support the desirable depth of the explanation of the action plan. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
