PERELLO-OLIVER, Salvador  y  MUELA-MOLINA, Clara. The Use of Radio Advertorials in Spanish Radio Stations. Palabra Clave [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.3, e2237. ISSN 0122-8285.  https://doi.org/10.5294/pacla.2019.22.3.7.

Radio advertorials (RA) are long advertisements broadcasted within the programming and executed by journalists to imitate editorial content. An analysis of their presence, use and characteristics confirms that journalists and radio owners are not rigorous in the application of the codes of conduct that regulate this advertising feature in Spain. This work focuses on these rules and propose a matrix of variables, such as time slot, product category, type of endorser, advertiser identiftication, format and copy text style, which identifies these inappropriate practices in the sample under study. The results show that RAs are more prevalent during time slots with higher audience ratings and in programs hosted by well-known radio personalities. Also, most RAs are embedded within the editorial content of programs and are formatted as interviews, and their copy style is informative.

Palabras clave : Advertising; radio advertising; program content; editorial content; ethics; journalist; radio.
