Abstract

This paper proposes, through professional routines of legal journalism, a field work about the covering of 'Marta del Castillo' case made by the two main newspapers: El País and El Mundo. For that, we used as investigation techniques the content analysis complemented with interviews of the journalist who covered the case in the analyzed newspapers. The study establishes registers - fundamentally quantitative- of the writing unities of both newspapers along the year in which the litigation in Justice Administration went by and offers significant results, in its formal dimension and in its content dimension.
