Abstract
This article analyses press front-page coverage of the end of Prime Minister Cavaco Silva’s last mandate (1994-1995). The empirical research focuses on two dailies (Diario de Noticias and Publico) and two weeklies (Expresso and O Independente). The main hypothesis seeks to cross-reference the changes in the Portuguese news media, namely broadcasting, with the international literature about end-of-mandate periods. According to several studies, these periods demonstrate increasing conflict between political power and the news media. The empirical media analysis is carried out by SPSS.
