The bank-friendly media, because they accept their advertising, justify it by explaining that the density of bank branches in Spain is well above the European average. But is this the only data we need to look at, or are there more factors to take into account? We analyse a news item from &#8216;La Vanguardia&#8217; using the Bias Method.<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since 2007, more than half of the bank branches in Spain have been <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bde.es\/f\/webbde\/SES\/Secciones\/Publicaciones\/PublicacionesAnuales\/InformesAnuales\/20\/Fich\/InfAnual_2020.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">closed<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a fact that aggravates<\/span><b> the exclusion of rural areas and the elderly<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Certainly, in case of doubt, the reader can look for information on their own about the figures or statements published, but in an era in which knowing how to identify true news from disinformation is a necessity of the first order, it is necessary to give the sources the importance they deserve, especially when the origin of the information and its context are essential to determine the possible degree of bias in an article &#8220;Offered by CaixaBank&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>INTENT<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The headline of the article states that &#8220;Spain doubles the European average as the second EU country with the most bank branches per inhabitant&#8221;. <\/span><b>One might think that this is current news, but this data has been known for many years.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A report by the European Central Bank (ECB) in 2016 already included this information, which was also published by the media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does this headline cover the main story, or does the banks&#8217; justification for the massive closure of branches and the dismissal of workers replace the real headline? We can certainly conclude that there is an intention to give visibility to the banks&#8217; point of view.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>CONTEXT<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The information is contextualised with the headline and the explanation of the trend of consumers to use telematic means to carry out their banking transactions. But <\/span><b>key elements are missing because it focuses on the number of branches per inhabitant, not on the number of employees per customer<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In this sense, the data are not favourable to banking, because we are far from the European average, and it will get even worse given the massive redundancies in the banking sector. No mention is made of this issue, which is undoubtedly relevant considering that the article analyses the impact that the closure of branches will have on customer service. The context is therefore unclear: are branches closing because there are masses of people, or are they closing because traditional banks are not sustainable?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>COMMERCIAL MOTIVES<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The headline of the article published on the &#8216;La Vanguardia&#8217; website clearly shows that it is CaixaBank content, i.e. advertising content, but in the printed version of the newspaper it simply states that we are reading an article in one of the &#8220;Special pages&#8221;. But above all, on the front page of the Economy section,<\/span><b> the content appears as another news item, without indicating that it is sponsored<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This is a clear violation of the rights of the reader, who at the time could not know that it was advertising content from CaixaBank.<\/span><\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"component gallery\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col col-lg-10 offset-lg-1\">\n        <div id=\"slider_1\" class=\"carousel slide\" data-wrap=\"false\" data-interval=\"false\">\n          <div class=\"carousel-inner\">\n            <div class=\"carousel-item active\">\n              <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"d-block w-100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.11onze.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/11onze_check_IMAGE_CHECK-copia.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n              <div class=\"carousel-caption\">\n                \n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"component text\">\n  <div class=\"container\">\n\n\n    <div class=\"row\">\n      <div class=\"col  col-lg-8  offset-lg-2\">\n        <h3><b>VAGUENESS<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>The information is rather foggy due to the constant changes of subject<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It starts with an apparently newsworthy fact (the closure of branches, in this case justifying it), but soon the piece turns into a series of CaixaBank good news bulletin. They talk about their flagships, new services, ATMs&#8230; In short, they leave the main topic to include as much promotional content as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>VOCATION OF SERVICE<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The content is clearly focused on the banking storyline, and<\/span><b> there is an evident attempt to normalise the closure of branches<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the queues in the street as inevitable. The public interest becomes secondary, or simply ignored in an almost sarcastic tone, when it is claimed that the closure of branches, &#8220;rationalisation&#8221;, of its network will improve the customer experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In conclusion, we can state that <\/span><b>this information is 60% biased<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and shows a decidedly biased view of circumstances that should be analysed accurately and honestly in the general interest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>To know more about the Bias Method we have used to contrast this information, you will find it <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.11onze.cat\/magazine\/11onze-check-contra-desinformacio-economica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>here<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
