The present article approaches the discourse building by two Chilean newspapers around aspirant women to Congreso Nacional for the period 2014 to 2018.From a gender perspective and through a critical discourse analysis, was studied the news of the La Tercera and Las Últimas Noticias newspapers about the women parliamentary candidates during 2013 campaign. The results show that communication media are highly (re)producers of symbolic violence which make invisible, discredit, and trivialize to the women who fight for votes for a seat in the State’s legislative arm on the one hand and on asihe other hand, they emphasize the particularities from the female nature as a contribution to Parliament. It strengthens the masculine character of the politic in Chile.
