La Voz (The Voice) is a newspaper produced in Phoenix, Arizona, in the United States. Although the newspaper is associated with The Arizona Republic, their content is unrelated. La Voz is also distributed in Tucson, and copies are free.
La Voz is geared towards Hispanic readers, specially Mexican and Mexican American readers, therefore, most of the news covered are from incidents or social events that happen in Mexico. But since other groups of Hispanics have been steadily growing since the early 1990s in Arizona (there are 7,000 Puerto Ricans living there, for example), La Voz also carries news of interest to other Hispanics, such as Puerto Ricans, Panamanians, Chileans, Argentines and others.
La Voz's sports department concentrates mostly on Mexican league Association football games, but it also covers other sports, such as baseball and boxing. Ahmed Santos, the famed former boxer, is a contributor for La Voz.
La Voz's main competitors include La Opinión, Prensa Hispana and others.
