Público (Spanish for "Public") is a Spanish online newspaper. It was published as a print daily newspaper between 2007 and 2012. The print version folded but the newspaper continues online.

History and profile

Público was established in September 2007.[2][3] The founder is Jaume Roures, head of Mediapro.[2] One of only two national left-wing papers (the other being El Diario),[4][5] the paper had a harder-left editorial line than the circulation leader, El País.[6] Público also aimed at a younger readership.[7] The paper was two-thirds the length of its competitors and its price, initially only 50 cents, was less than half. The paper's original press run was 250,000 daily.[8]

After making financial losses for several years, and facing a €9 million deficit, Público folded its print edition in February 2012.[7][6] In its last year, the paper was the ninth-largest general-interest newspaper in Spain and the fifth-largest of those headquartered in Madrid.[9]

The parent company Mediapro[5] undertook to continue to publish the website publico.es,[6] which as of 2014 was still active as an online newspaper.[1][10]

Público and CTXT, a Spanish independent online publication, began a collaborative editorial agreement in June 2016.
