ElNacional

El Nacional, meaning “The National” in Spanish, is a name used by several newspapers and media outlets in Spanish-speaking countries. The most prominent examples are El Nacional (Venezuela) and El Nacional (Ecuador), though the name has been adopted by other regional publications and online platforms as well.

El Nacional (Venezuela) is a Caracas-based daily newspaper with broad coverage of national and international news, including politics, economics, culture, and sports. It publishes in print and maintains an online edition, offering articles, opinion pieces, and multimedia content to a national audience.

El Nacional (Ecuador) is a daily newspaper published in Ecuador that provides coverage of national and regional events, in addition to politics, economy, culture, and other topics. It also maintains an online presence to reach readers beyond the print edition.

In addition to these major outlets, the El Nacional name has been used by smaller regional newspapers, magazines, and online portals in various countries. The exact editorial stance, ownership, and editorial policies vary by publication, reflecting local media practices and regulatory environments.

Because multiple entities share the El Nacional name, precise identification typically requires specifying the country or city of publication. The term itself simply reflects a common naming convention for national-level news outlets in the Spanish-speaking world.
