Abstract

The present paper attempts to shed light on the news issues related to the so-called war on drugs in Mexico, focusing on the frequency with which they are covered in the international press, and comparedto a national newspaper. The information was collected in three international and one national newspaper: The Guardian of England, The New York Times of US, El Pais of Spain, and The Universal of Mexico. Two different approaches were used for the discussion: Agenda-setting and domestication. A content analysis of news stories in the political transition period 2012-2013 in the Mexican federal government was conducted. The results revealed that there is persistence in the number of news storiesfrom the change of government; however, there is also a slight difference in the trend of themes that each of the newspapers reported.
