Abstract
A la vez que el consenso sobre el cambio climático se ha ido trasladando del ámbito científico a la opinión pública, los argumentos negacionistas se han moderado, adoptando un discurso escéptico más sutil y complejo. Sin embargo, pocas investigaciones sobre estos discursos parten de un número relevante de contenidos periodísticos. El presente estudio analiza los argumentos escépticos en los medios impresos y digitales españoles entre 2015 y 2021, con una muestra de 147 artículos de 35 periódicos, seleccionados a partir de una técnica de búsqueda agregada de conceptos clave en Factiva y tras la revisión de más de 5000 artículos. Los resultados señalan que el encuadre argumental es prioritariamente ideológico, con una idea de libertad de opinión que funciona como vector principal. Mientras, el encuadre económico guía el posicionamiento escéptico sobre las medidas a adoptar ante el cambio climático.
As the consensus on climate change has moved from the scientific arena to public opinion, denialist arguments have moderated, adopting a more subtle and complex skeptical discourse. However, only a few studies on these discourses are based on a relevant number of journalistic contents. The present study analyzes skeptical arguments in Spanish print and digital media between 2015 and 2021, with a sample of 147 articles from 35 newspapers, selected from an aggregated search technique of key concepts in Factiva and after reviewing fragments in more than 5000 articles. The results show that the argumentative framing is primarily ideological and that the idea of freedom of opinion functions as the main vector. Meanwhile, the economic framing guides the skeptical positioning on the measures to be adopted in the face of climate change.
