MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN EL SALVADOR

Print media in this Central American nation relies heavily on long-standing family ownership structures centered in the capital. The market is led by La Prensa Grafica, a conservative broadsheet founded in 1915 by the Dutriz family, and El Diario de Hoy, a competing conservative daily established in 1936. Offering a different perspective is Diario Co Latino, the oldest continuously operating paper, which dates to 1890 and functions as a left-leaning cooperative. El Mundo serves as another traditional daily option. Almost all print news is published in Spanish from San Salvador, though local reporting reaches secondary cities.
