Two corpora of news stories are analyzed: the first contains news stories about the Comunidad de Madrid, whereas the second is contextualized and geolocalized in a par­ticular area of Madrid, Lavapiés, where severa! studies have revealed a tendency to use the diversity present in this territory as a marketing strategy. The analysis brings to light diff erences and similarities in the metonymical discourse of each corpus, namely in terms of the distribu­tion of the conceptual metonymies found therein, as well as their corre­lation with a positive, neutral, or negative assessment of the given news story. The metonymical discourse of the first corpus correlates most strongly with neutral assessments, while that of the second corpus correlates largely with positive assessments of the conceptualizations. %K Spanish Press %K Conceptual metonymies %K Critica!
