Excélsior

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Excélsior is a daily newspaper, founded by Rafael Alducin and published in Mexico City since 1917.

During the 1950s and 1960s, the newspaper's editorial stance was of a relatively liberal bent, under the editorship of Julio Scherer. After Scherer left the newspaper in the 1970s, the editorial stance became more overtly supportive of the PRI and the Mexican establishment in general. In January 2006 the Imagen group, owned by Olegario Vazquez Raña, acquired the newspaper, and then changing its main content. Its main writers also contribute to the radio station Imagen and TV station Cadena 3.
