1. / ANALYSIS BY COUNTRY/ ANALYSIS BY COUNTRY
SPAIN
Circulation of Spanish newspapers continues to shrink, leaving
many dependent on government advertising and a few major
businesses. Last year, El País lost 11% of sales in print, and El Mundo
13%. Freesheet 20 minutos is available in print in the biggest cities,
and it acts as a purely online brand elsewhere. Regional and local
newspapers remained moderately healthy, but many still have to
catch up online. Television channel La Sexta, with a broad range of
news and current affairs programmes, shows the biggest increase
among traditional media, while Cadena SER is the leading radio
network online and offline.
Online, pure-players gained ground in the last year at the expense
of traditional newspapers. El Confidencial – now profitable – is the
most read online-only newspaper in Spain, followed by Público.es,
which carries the brand of a print daily that ceased publication in
2012. News start-up, Eldiario.es, reached break-even early and keeps
growing with an extensive network of collaborators and partnerships.
But El País and El Mundo continue to be the papers of record in
Spain, both offline and online, where they attract audiences three
times the size of even the most successful digital-born companies.
Apart from digital newsstands, most publishers continued to keep
their online content ad-supported and free for all, with El Mundo
operating a generous metered paywall. Digital-born media have
experimented with crowdfunding and reader-shareholder schemes
and some have promoted memberships and donations in order to
reduce dependence on advertisers.
The Spanish Google News portal was removed in December 2014
in response to a state law that intended to tax the service, driven
by the newspaper publishing lobby. Google Search still displays ‘In
the news’ results and a ‘News’ tab for specific queries, with a limited
selection of stories, which is why it is still showing at 15%.

The increase in sharing news can be attributed first to the
growth in mobile and social consumption, and secondly
to intense public interest in the turbulent political issues
in Spain. Television, though, remains a key driver of
debate, with Podemos and Ciudadanos as new political
actors. Current affairs programmes in particular are widely
discussed on social media.
