The presidential elections of 2006 were the most competitive in the recent history of Mexico. Practically tied, they reached the final stretch: Felipe Calderón of the Partido Acción Nacional (pan) and Andrés Manuel López Obrador, of the Coalición por el Bien de Todos. After almost 60 days of uncertainty, the Tribunal Electoral del Poder Judicial de la Federación (tepjf) delivered its opinion, unquestionable and unassailable: Calderon got the win.The press endorsed its role as an political actor. This paper presents a discourse analysis of 148 publishers presented by four newspapers. Two questions were answered: What did you talk about? and Why did you talk about? The answer to the first said “what was published and what not”. In the discourse analysis "its relevant to both what is said and what is not said." The answer to Why did they talk about? it stood opposite positions findings as El Universal and La Jornada on the post-election conflict. Issues such as the lack of legal instruments to ensure the electoral legitimacy became evident
