El Economista is a Mexican business and economics newspaper. Founded in 1988,[1][2] it publishes from Monday to Friday in five columns. One of its most distinctive features is the unusual tone of pink-orange paper it is printed on.
It was founded in Mexico City on December 5, 1988, by journalists Luis Enrique Mercado and Martín Casillas de Alba. Mercado, a specialist in economic journalism who had previously worked at El Universal, served as the newspaper's general director from its founding until 2008.[3] Casillas de Alba, an engineer and editor who had created his own publishing house and the cultural magazine La Plaza, acted as editorial director from 1988 to 1994, overseeing the newspaper's cultural coverage.[4]
