Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Communications - Mass Media, University of Amsterdam, language: English, abstract: This paper examines the following question: How successful did the press conference frames influence second-level agenda-setting in German and Spanish news media? In the flight industry, cultural differences are present every day. When a crash occurs, the airline's crisis communication requires meeting the journalistic expectations of different cultural spheres. Thus, the study compares frames in Spanish and German news media. Humans gather information about the airline's crisis communication through traditional media formats. So, high-quality newspapers (n = 255) and newscasts (n = 40) were sampled. Additionally, the study compares the media formats. To understand Germanwings's and Lufthansa's sense-making frames were selected from a press conference. Afterward, the impact on second-level agenda-setting, which is about manoeuvring around issues and the debate's tone, was examined. Essentially, frames between both countries and both media formats varied. In detail, the difference was stronger pronounced for the latter. Since, in German news media, the frames were more salient, the company has to consider cultural particularities when being in a European conversation. Frames were also more successful in newscasts than in newspapers. Considering the wide reach of television, the format is noteworthy for companies. Also, the study determined salient actors in three dimensions: Occurrence, prominence, and centrality. Here, experts, airlines, and political actors were salient. At this point, a broad inclusion of civil society actors indicates a high quality of the debate. Finally, future research could include the two explored dimensions in longitudinal comparisons. Also, investigating the crisis communication of parent companies and subsidiaries should be considered.

When the post-war relationship between Spain and America began, Hitler's old ally was an unlikely candidate for US influence. The Cold War changed all this. Soon there were US bases on Spanish territory and a political conjuring trick was under way. This volume examines the public diplomacy strategies that the US government employed to accomplish an almost impossible mission: to keep a warm relationship with a tyrant without drifting apart from his opponents, and to somehow pave the way for a transition to democracy. The book's focus on the perspective of soft power breaks new ground in understanding US-Spanish relations. In so doing, it offers valuable lessons for understanding how public diplomacy has functioned in the past and can function today and tomorrow in transitions to democracy.

News media are principal actors in the development of national identities: they have the ability to construct them, maintain them, or divide them. Identity Discourses about Spain and Catalonia in News Media explores the historical and contemporary role of journalism in the relationship between Catalonia and Spain. With more than seven million inhabitants, Catalonia is a region of Spain with historical economic strength and a unique culture. For centuries, but recently at an escalating pace, a large part of the Catalan population has expressed the desire to secede from Spain, constituting a prototypical case study for secessionism among developed countries. This book explains how news media have constructed Catalan and Spanish identities as different from one other, suggesting that journalism can play a crucial role in secessionist politics.
