History and profile

Diário Popular was first published on 22 September 1942.[2][3] Its headquarters was in Lisbon.[2][4] The paper was one of two Portuguese newspapers published in Angola during the colonial rule.[5] The other was Jornal de Notícias.[5] In the 1960s Diário Popular was acquired by the Balsemão family.[6]

Diário Popular was the organizer of the first journalism program in Portugal which was held in 1966.[7] In the late 1960s the paper was acquired by the Quina group, a family company.[6] In 1971 it was one of two Portuguese best-selling newspapers.[2]

Diário Popular belonged to the Banco Borges and Irmão, a bank, before the Carnation revolution.[2][8] The paper was nationalized following the revolution in 1974 along with other private dailies and publications.[6][9] It was controlled by the communists and adopted a communist stance in October 1975.[6][10] In May 1978 the paper had a left-wing political stance.[6]

Diário Popular had a circulation of 73,000 copies in October 1975 and 66,000 copies in May 1978.[6]

In 1989 Diário Popular was privatized and was acquired by the company, Projectos e Estudos de Imprensa (PEI) which also became the owner of the sports paper Record.[4] The company was headed by Pedro Santana Lopes, a member of the Social Democratic Party.[4] However, the paper ceased publication in 1990.[9]
