The objective of this article is to study the information circuits in the Mexican press about the news of the explosion of the Maine Ship in the Bay of Havana on February 15, 1898. For this we use digital tools as identification of regular expressions, KeyWords and NER in order to identify circulation patterns and relevant issues in newspapers. Our results indicate a remarkable predominance of the news produced in the United States, and a dominance of the narrative about the event from the information generated by North American institutions.
