Abstract
This article is an exploratory study that aims to analyze the content of local and national news published in the digital media "CDL Noticias" during the month of November 2023. In this writing, a qualitative methodology was applied, which was developed through a content analysis, seeking to understand the informative panorama of the medium and to evaluate the importance that CDL assigns to each type of content by means of an observation sheet. The results highlighted in this research made it possible to identify the predominant topics, the approaches used and the frequency with which different types of news are addressed.
