El Diario is a daily newspaper published in La Paz, Bolivia. Incorporated in 1904, it is Bolivia's oldest newspaper and considered a newspaper of record for Bolivia. The newspaper traditionally followed a conservative position in line with its founders, the Carrasco family, one of La Paz's most influential families of the 20th century.[1]
History
It was founded on April 5, 1904, and is Bolivia's oldest newspaper still in publication. It started as an evening paper, becoming a morning paper from the eighth edition; from edition 18 it started publishing daily dramas.[2] In 1967, it started printing a few pages in color, and in the following decade, it adopted the offset system.[3]
On April 5, 1953, coinciding with its 49th anniversary, El Diario inaugurated its first teletype service, which had a terminal manufactured by Westrex Corporation.[4]
The newspaper was usurped on September 7, 1970, when Juan José Torres became president of the republic, suspending its publishing until September 1, 1971.[5]
