- Abstract
Press has a great influence in the generation of public opinion. According to the Agenda Setting theory, the most relevant news for the media will be also for their audience. The unemployment of people older than 45 years is a social problem that affects many families today, however is in question if newspapers give it enough importance. Through the documentary and content analysis of the main Spanish newspapers, this study aims to show which coverage gives the Spanish press to the social problems suffered by the unemployed older than 45 years. The results show insufficient treatment of the problem, with little specificity in the news that address the issue, with slight differences depending on the region. The news are part of overall political and economic contexts. However, the news with educational and social framework show a greater tendency to show improvement initiatives for the access to employment. It is concluded that unemployment of people older than 45 years is relegated to occasional news and in the most of cases is a secondary topic of the new.
