Editorial management, leadership, general press, media contentsAbstract
The daily newspaper “El Mundo” (“The World”) was launched in Madrid in 1989. The external circumstances were really discouraging: The publishing company did not have enough capital, it did not own printing facilities and the journalistic crew was too short. However, “El Mundo” did managed to surpass these obstacles and has turned into the second best-selling general information newspaper in Spain. The key success factor of “El Mundo” has been its editorial bid: its valor to denounce cases of political and economic corruption; its independence from advertisers and the main political parties. In this research paper, the main editorial bids and brand attributes of “El Mundo” are analyzed. In order to reach this aim, interviews will be held with the main managers of the newspaper and the brand research reports that the marketing department prepares will also be studied.
