'''Diario Expreso''' is a [[daily newspaper]] with national circulation in [[Peru]]. Founded in 1961, it is among the [[List of newspapers in Peru|newspapers with the highest circulation in Peru]].
==History==
It was founded on October 24, 1961 by {{ill|Manuel Mujica Gallo|es}}, a wealthy owner linked to the banking and insurance business.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Culture and customs of Peru |last=Dargent-Chamot |first=Eduardo |publisher=[[Greenwood Press]] |year=2003 |isbn=0-313-08947-7 |pages=67-69 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GRs2XadKJSoC |oclc=181175484}}</ref> For this purpose, the company ''Periodística Perú S.

In 1965, it was acquired by [[Manuel Ulloa Elías]], who founded ''Editora Nacional S. A.'' The same company published the evening newspaper ''{{ill|Extra (Peruvian newspaper)|es|Extra (Perú)|lt=Extra}}''. In this new stage, {{ill|Efraín Ruiz Caro|es}} and Guillermo Cortez Núñez were editors-in-chief. Among his collaborators were [[Ciro Alegría]], {{ill|Carlos Cueto Fernandini|es}}, Manuel Mujica Gallo and [[Mario Vargas Llosa]]. A Sunday supplement entitled ''Estampas'' was also published; and as a contribution to education, the supplement ''El Escolar''.<ref name=Tauro2001>{{Cite book |title=Enciclopedia ilustrada del Perú |last=Tauro del Pino |first=Alberto |publisher=[[El Comercio (Peru)|Empresa Editora El Comercio S.

With the rise of a [[Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces of Peru|military government]] in 1968, difficulties began. On October 31 of that year, ''Expreso'' and ''Extra'' were closed by order of the regime of General [[Juan Velasco Alvarado]]. However, a protest by the Federation of Journalists of Peru forced the Government to allow the newspapers to reopen.<ref name=Chirinos1985>{{Cite book |title=Historia de la República (1930-1985) |last=Chirinos Soto |first=Enrique |publisher=AFA Editores Importadores S.A. |year=1985 |edition=3rd |location=Lima |pages=304–305 |language=es |volume=2}}</ref>
On January 2, 1970, Manuel Ulloa resigned as president of the board of directors of Editora Nacional S. A. because a Government decree prevented those who resided outside the country for more than six months from exercising such function.<ref name=Tauro2001/> Ulloa, who had been an important minister of the overthrown Belaundista government, chose not to return to Peru after considering that a political persecution had been unleashed against him.<ref name=Chirinos1985/>
On March 4, 1970, ''Expreso'' and ''Extra'' were practically expropriated by the military government, with the excuse of handing over their administration to their own employees and workers, organized in cooperatives. However, people outside the newspapers took control of them.<ref name=Chirinos1985/> In this stage of expropriation, the following served as directors of Expreso: {{ill|Alberto Ruiz Eldredge|es}}, {{ill|Leopoldo Chiappo|es}} and {{ill|Juan José Vega|es}}, all appointed by the government.<ref name=Pinto/> Some time later, Velasco explained that he had given the newspapers to the communists to serve as "mastiffs" (prey dogs) in his "fight against the oligarchy."<ref name=Chirinos1985/>
After the revolutionary government ended on July 28, 1980, ''Expreso'' and ''Extra'' returned to their owners, and Manuel Ulloa took over again as president of the board of ''Editora Nacional S. A.'' The first director of Expreso, in this new stage, was Guillermo Cortez Núñez (1980-1988), who was succeeded by [[Manuel D'Ornellas]] (1988-1998). It then had a prestigious team of journalists, among which {{ill|Jaime de Althaus|es}}, Jorge Morelli, Uri Ben Schmuel and [[Patricio Ricketts]] stood out.<ref name=Tauro2001/>
During the government of [[Alberto Fujimori]] (1990-2000), the newspaper's directors were committed to selling their editorial line to the interests of the regime.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Fujimori y Montesinos se fueron contra los medios |url=https://www.elcomercio.com/actualidad/fujimori-y-montesinos-medios.html |date=2009-11-01 |work=[[El Comercio (Ecuador)|El Comercio]]}}</ref> After the fall of Fujimori, the imprisonment of the newspaper's director, {{ill|Eduardo Calmell del Solar|es}}, was ordered, accused of having received, together with Vicente Silva Checa (director of ''{{ill|Cable Canal de Noticias|es}}''), more than [[US$]] 3,000,000 from presidential advisor [[Vladimiro Montesinos]].<ref>{{Cite news |title=Director de Expreso y empresario de TV habrían recibido más de US$ tres millones de Montesinos |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/328...ecibido-mas-de-us-tres-millones-de-montesinos |date=2001-01-18 |work=[[La República]]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title=Prófugo culpable en compra de CCN |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/345930-profugo-culpable-en-compra-de-ccn |date=2003-10-08 |work=[[La República]]}}</ref>
In 2002, a new organization came into operation under the direction of Luis García Miró, whose objective was to recover the prestige of the newspaper. Since 2024, the director is Antonio Ramírez Pando.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www2.expreso.com.pe/historia/ |title=Nuestra historia |website=Expreso |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190223201249/http://www2.expreso.com.pe/historia/ |archive-date=2019-02-23}}</ref>
