The analysis included three countries - the UK, Spain and Denmark - each representing one of Hallin and Mancini's (2004) three overall models of media and politics: the liberal system, the polarized pluralist system and the democratic corporatist system. We find important similarities across countries with high levels of concentration in media coverage of groups, more extensive coverage of economic groups than citizen groups and differential patterns of group appearances across policy areas and between right-leaning and left-leaning papers. However, we also identify country variation, with the highest degree of concentration among group appearances in Spanish newspapers and most attention to economic groups in Danish newspapers.16 p.application/pdfeng(c) Cambridge University Press, 2017Mitjans de comunicació de massaGrups de pressióEspanyaGran BretanyaDinamarcaMass mediaPressure groupsSpainGreat BritainDenmarkinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6595022016-04-11info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
