Contemporary audio-visual sources offer us a unique opportunity to learn about the key role of television in the transmission of historical events such as the Portuguese Carnation Revolution of 1974.

The objective of this article is to explain how TVE (Spanish Television) told the Spaniards about this popular uprising in order to analyse the evolution of the discourse of the public entity and Spanish society from the end of the dictatorship to the victory of the PSOE (Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party) in 1982.

Keywords : Audio-Visual; Carnation Revolution; TVE; Spain; Transition.
