The study of think tanks in Spain has been growing in the last few years with an equally increasing number of social and grassroots movements. This article offers content analysis results from selecting eight Spanish think tanks in the digital press during a seven-year period, adding new conclusions to previous literature for the same period. This research explores the appearance of the media and the type of mentions and authorship of the articles and blogs included in the digital press, contributing to a deeper study of think tanks. This study aims to analyse the limited presence of Spanish think tanks in media outlets and whether their appearance is ideologically motivated. The article built a constructed week sampling and followed a content analysis methodology to gather quantitative and qualitative elements from the selected sampling (n=1,101). The paper concludes that think tanks in the Spanish digital press are limited, causing a lack of knowledge of their existence and raising questions about how they try to impact the policymaking process.
