The present investigation has as a context the clashes between coca growers and police in the Monzón Valley (Huánuco) between 2010 and 2013, during the detention of terrorists remnants drug traffickers, and local authorities. In addition, the eradication of coca leaf crops was carried out, exacerbating the conflict in most areas of the valley. These events had a great impact on journals and television media, influencing in two positions: the defense of cultivation and the promotion of eradication. Thereby, the journals made media coverage of that conflict; however, that coverage not included important details. Therefore, this research analyzes the journalistic discourse of the newspapers El Comercio and La República about the coca conflict in the Monzón Valley (Huánuco) between 2010 and 2013. The hypothesis is that the both journalistic discourses are characterized by compare the activity of coca leaf cultivation with drug trafficking and terrorism, promoting the stigmatization of the coca farmer with these criminal groups. Finally, both newspapers don´t investigate the structural conditions of the problem and promote its discriminatory, exclusionary and centralist content, being both media of national distribution.
