Público (transl. '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. The founder is Jaume Roures, head of Mediapro. One of only two national left-wing papers (the other being elDiario.es), the paper had a harder-left editorial line than El País. Público also aimed at a younger readership. 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.

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

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

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