Abstract

The results of a research about the representation and image of immigrants in fictionaltelevision programs are presented. The theoretical background is Gerbner’s CultivationTheory. A content analysis was performed with a representative sample of prime timetelevision programming from six channels (TVE1, La 2, Antena 3, Cuatro, Tele 5 y LaSexta). The results of the study permit to confirm that immigrants are under-representedin fictional television programs. Moreover, it was found that the construction ofimmigration in these programs is based in negative stereotypes
