Abstract

Since the end of the 19^th Century some new topics have been appearing in Spanish newspapers of general information stimulated by new ways of doing journalism. One of the topics that had better acceptance by the general public and that caused new ways of layout in newspapers was sport. And one of the first newspapers of general information which dedicated not only great space but also typographical and formal attention to sport was El Debate (Madrid, 1910-1936). A structural and instrumental analysis of each piece of sport news published during the 26 years of history of the newspaper has shown that El Debate grouped the pieces of sport news at the same page and in 1922 it began to publish a complete page of sport information weekly. Moreover, since 1919, El Debate used headlines which were two columns wide rather than one column wide. Thus, the sport pages of El Debate pioneered the gradual abandon of the vertical layout in order to break the alleys with headlines and pictures. This fact was a constant feature since 1920 until the end of the newspaper.
