In a context of mediated politics, the assumption is that the most visible actors in the media debate have a greater chance of capturing public attention and exerting influence in the public opinion. Nevertheless, according to the actors’ profile and their resources, we
expected to observe a high variation among actors’ media strategy and their visibility on different media. The study cases are the public debate in response to regulation in United Kingdom with the Digital Economy Act(DEA) and the Spanish case with the Ley de Economía Sostenible (LES). The media visibility is measured
on the following media: mainstream media, web sites, search engines, blogs and video sharing services. The research applies different methodological approaches to obtain the data and to triangulate the research findings, including documentary analysis, hyperlink network analysis, analysis of video networks, automatic content analysis and finally interviews with key people from the different actors involved in the conflict. The aim of
this research is to identify the actors’ strategy on media and to compare the most visible actors and their messages on multiple media channels. Some of the research findings are an extreme disparity of media visibility among policy actors; the research tries to explain this situation. According to expectations, policy actors´ media strategy and their media visibility vary among media channels. A finding of this research is that visibility varies widely from one context to another even when actors show similar profiles. In addition, in both
cases there is a strong correlation between the media agenda and the public attention as well as a moderate correlation between visibility on blogs and mainstream media, this correlation is stronger for all actors in the
United Kingdom.

Regulations and policy initiatives concerning the non-authorized use of copyright contents in the Internet have generated in multiple countries strong lobby processes which include a media campaign between the different agents who consider these regulations essential for its interests. The copyrights coalition (CRC) argues that “un-authorized” uses of contents are a risk for their business and because of that they lobby for strong policies to protect rights holders. The Internet Service Providers (ISP) do not want to assume the supervision cost of internet users ́ behaviour although they would like to participate in the profits of the digital content business. Digital Rights Activists (DRA) believe that regulation proposals and policies threaten fundamental rights such as personal privacy, freedom of speech, free circulation of information and knowledge as well as the right of Internet access. In this paper we study the media visibility of different stakeholders who are part of this...

In this research note we present the first data collected in Spain on the political uses of the Internet including consumption of political information, reception of mobilizing stimuli through the Internet, and political participation online. We explore the data describing the indicators and then check whether it is possible to identify the same modes of online political participation that are usually distinguished in the offline arena. Our results show that online political participation stands as an independent mode, while at the same time some of its features may complement offline modes such as contacting.

Twitter is a social media expressly devoted to disseminate information and since its consolidation (about 2006), it is gaining users at an exponential rate. One of the main scholar thoughts in the literature of the Internet and politics is what Negroponte (1995) almost 20 years ago, called “the daily me”, and how the risk of specialized news consumption will favor a polarization on society (Farrell 2012, Sustein 2007, Conover et al. 2011 among others). Nevertheless, the impact of the Internet and in particular of Twitter on political difference is unclear (Brundige, Rice 2009). The main purpose of this paper is to analyze on Twitter the proximity to traditional media (newspapers, radio, TV) of political parties’ that have a contrary political filiation. We expect to assess if Twitter in an electoral process favors political fragmentation and polarization or can promote accidental exposure to political information (Tewksbury et al, 2001). We analyzed the case of the last Catalan Election (25th November of 2012), that was a very polarized electoral process. We obtained a sample of 45.000 tweets of the last week of the elections, we classify the most visible Twitter’s accounts according to their centrality level at the network, after that we coding the most visible accounts according to its political filiation, we analyzed the proximity of the accounts in respect to traditional media of another political filiation We observe that the majority of ties are between homophile members; however there are a few central brokers that favor accidental information exposure of parties accounts to traditional media with contrary political filiation.

Tras el trabajo exploratorio de <em>Jóvenes, Internet y Política</em> (FAD, 2014), esta publicación profundiza en las relaciones que se producen entre las tres variables. El objetivo es explorar hasta qué punto la irrupción de Internet en la realidad cotidiana de los jóvenes, en sus formas de relacionarse y actuar, ha generado formas nuevas de entender la política y de participar en ella. Para ello se analizan las "organizaciones políticas convencionales" y el espectro plural de "organizaciones políticas no convencionales" o de nuevo cuño; se profundiza en estudios de caso sobre "procesos híbridos" a caballo entre unas y otras, y se abordan prácticas más amplias que tienen espacio en la red (como los <em>memes</em> o procesos de economía colaborativa).

El tema de la tesis es la visibilidad mediática de los actores políticos involucrados en el debate sobre el uso no autorizado de contenidos sujetos a derechos de autor en Internet. En el contexto denominado como la política mediatizada, los actores con una mayor visibilidad mediática en el debate tendrán más opciones de captar la atención pública e influenciar a la opinión pública. No obstante, de acuerdo al perfil del actor y sus recursos su estrategia de medios y su visibilidad mediática se espera presente variaciones. La ...

A lot has changed since the first social network-based raising awareness campaigns became a political tool.
Communication among political actors has changed dramatically. We have had the time to look into many e-campaigns with a worldwide impact: USA’s President Obama based his successful electoral campaign leading towards the White House on social networks and e-activism. If it were my home played a major role in the crises when monitoring the evolution of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The “glimpses” project gave cameras to Palestinian child refugees to record their daily lives and eventually use them to report on rights abuses by Israel police. The Tweet your MEP initiative helps monitoring the work of Members of the European Parliament (MEPs). And, last but not least, Wikileaks has unveiled restricted USA diplomatic cables.
Analyzing the strategies that make an e-campaign work is critical to make political ideas spread faster and we have now enough historical perspective to draw some conclusions from past experiences and identify the strategies that work better.

El desarrollo de internet es un fenómeno reciente que ha tenido profundos impactos sobre la vida cotidiana. Es un lugar común afirmar que las nuevas tecnologías han provocado una revolución en la forma de producir, consumir, construir nuestra identidad y relacionarnos. Cabe suponer que un cambio de tal magnitud y profundidad como el que está produciendo la adopción de nuevas tecnologías sobre la economía, la sociedad o la cultura, también afecte de manera significativa la relación de los ciudadanos con la política.

Current regulations and policy initiatives concerning the use of copyright contents in the Internet in multiple countries have generated strong lobby processes which include a media campaign between the different agents who consider these regulations essential for their interests. The entertainment industry argues that some uses of new technologies are a risk for their business and because of that they lobby for strong policies against piracy and the free use of content by search engines. The Internet Service Providers (ISP) do not want to assume the supervision cost of internet users´ behaviour although they would like to participate in the profits of the digital content business. Activists believe that regulation proposals and policies threaten fundamental rights such as personal privacy, freedom of speech, free circulation of information and knowledge as well as the right of Internet access. In this paper we focus our attention in the case of UK and Spain and the media visibility of actors who are part of this conflict. We assess if different sides in the conflict have the same media visibility in order for their statements to be followed by the public opinion. We draw upon a content analysis of documents on multiple online channels (organization web sites, news and blogs) and we do a network analysis in order to identify hyperlinks between the sites of the organizations involved in the conflict. In this way we identify the visibility of the policy agents on the Web and asses if there is a correlation between the visibility on the different online spheres (blogosphere, news sphere, web sphere, social network sphere). We find that visibility levels depend on the agents profile and the contextual features of the countries that we analyze.
