There are two main daily national newspapers in El Salvador: La
Prensa Gráfica ( www.laprensa.com.sv ) and El Diario de Hoy (
www.elsalvador.com/noticias ). Both have full coverage of regional and
international affairs - albeit from a very conservative standpoint - and
the Friday and Saturday editions are good for arts and cultural events.
El Mundo and Diario Latino are smaller afternoon papers with a moderate
stance, while Marca is a more sensationalist, tabloid-style affair.
Tendencias is a liberal monthly magazine with in-depth analysis of
political and social affairs. Daily papers are sold everywhere on the
streets. The bigger hotels stock US newspapers and magazines, and the
embassies have copies of papers from their respective countries.
There are seven national television stations and numerous cable channels
showing programmes from South America, CNN and CNN en Español, and films.
Over seventy radio stations , including Radio Venceremos (owned by the
FMLN), transmit pop, rock, Latin sounds and religious programming. The
BBC World Service can be picked up in El Salvador on 15220, 12095 and
9915 kHz (shortwave).
