El sesgo mediocéntrico del framing en España: una revisión crítica de la aplicación de la teoría del encuadre en los estudios de comunicación.

This article provides a critical review of the theoretical and methodological aroaches that have prevailed in the Spanish literature on framing. It points out that most studies take news frames as independent variable, but they do not account for the process by which news frames are intentionally built and promoted by stakeholders. We contend that this media bias is the result of a conception of frames as the outcome of journalistic routines, which implies overlooking the social interactions and ideological implications involved in the production and negotiation of frames.
