Resumen

En esta investigación se ha aplicado un análisis de contenido cualitativo a una muestra de noticias relacionadas con huelgas laborales procedentes de tres de los principales periódicos españoles. Los resultados sugieren que la prensa se centra, principalmente, en informar sobre las consecuencias negativas e inmediatas de las huelgas, en lugar de explicar las causas u otros datos adicionales. Las huelgas se describen, así, como sucesos aislados, que ocurren debido a desacuerdos específicos entre empresas y trabajadores. La atención se focaliza en los eventos (manifestaciones, desórdenes, pérdidas económicas, etc.) y no en las causas estructurales de las huelgas: la contradicción entre capital y trabajo y la consiguiente tensión entre las clases sociales. En este marco, los huelguistas y sus organizaciones son deslegitimados y aparecen aislados respecto del resto de la sociedad. La prensa sitúa a sus lectores dentro del colectivo de consumidores, cuyos intereses se representan como ajenos o incluso contrarios a los de los trabajadores en huelga.
