This means of communication was founded 46 years ago by the late Ivan Cardozo, being the oldest of the neoesparta entity . It turned out that of a workforce of 120 employees, currently only about 50 remain .
The print media in Venezuela has experienced difficulties since Corporación Editorial Alfredo Maneiro centralized the marketing and distribution of newspapers. From then on, the State began to allocate, at its discretion, the main inputs necessary for the operation of the rotary presses
The reality is not exclusive to Nueva Esparta. Other newspapers printed in the country have stopped circulating, their pages have been reduced or have become digital due to difficulties in log access. Last week, the newspaper El Siglo de Aragua also announced to his readers that his printed version would only come out four days a week (Sunday to Wednesday). In addition, El Sol de Monagas, one of the oldest newspapers of this entity, also became weekly
economic, political and social crisis as well as other sectors also impacted the means of communication. At the shortage of paper are added the high prices to maintain production, the flight of talent and the high costs involved in the respect of a payroll.
The National Union of Press Workers (Sntp), also echoed the action taken by the Board of Directors of Margarita Sol to maintain the stock of paper and guarantee traffic.
