Summary/Abstract: The Spanish social reality has evolved during the last years into a multicultural society, but these “new citizens” are very poorly represented on the media. They rarely become protagonists of any piece of news and when they do, the limitations of informative programming promote an stereotyped discourse. Romanians lead the ranking of immigration by country of origin in Spain and their ethnic media are numerous. Along with these, other multicultural media give voice to the immigrants and deal more deeply with the different identities to promote integration and coexistence.
