Los canales internacionales: una proyección al exterior

Abstract

The study reveals that Spanish international channels are important links with their local reality for citizens that live abroad . In addition, international television companies make important efforts to be in as many cable and satellite platforms all around the world as they can, while working on improving the quality of their internet broadcasts. However, this effort is not the matched in the area of content: most of the content is a re-broadcast of programs from other channels of the communication group, often from the archives, and we also point out that there are hardly any slots specifically dedicated to communities living abroad.
