Abstract
La investigación analiza el uso de las fuentes de información en noticias televisivas sobre asuntos europeos y su relación con el pluralismo informativo y político mediante la observación directa de una muestra de piezas seleccionadas. Los resultados revelan que los representantes de las élites políticas y gubernamentales siguen ocupando un lugar relevante en el espacio informativo. Además, su visibilidad se favorece mediante el empleo de formatos como el total o técnicas de coordinación entre las imágenes y la narración. Las fuentes cívicas, integradas por ciudadanos anónimos, alcanzan un grado de representación similar pero solo en piezas que incluyen citaciones directas. Por otra parte, un incremento del número y tipos de fuentes de información no genera necesariamente un mayor pluralismo político en las informaciones sobre asuntos europeos, ya que los medios españoles tienden a manifestar posiciones únicas y a menudo expresan una clara orientación europeísta.
The research analyses the use of information sources in television news on European issues and its relationship with political pluralism and pluralism of information through direct observation of a sample of selected stories. The results reveal that political and governmental representatives still occupy a relevant position in the informative space. In addition, the visibility of those sources is enhanced my means of individual appearances given on camera and through text picture correspondence. Civic sources, consisting of anonymous citizens, reach a similar degree of representation but only in news including direct quotes. On the other hand, an increase of the number and types of news sources do not necessarily ensue a larger degree of political pluralism. To the contrary, it has been proved that Spanish television networks tend to express unique opinions in the news and often show a clear political orientation in favor of the European integration process.
