Diagonal was a Spanish biweekly alternative newspaper,[1] covering breaking news, culture, political analysis from a grassroots approach. It presents itself as a communication tool for the left-leaning social movements, and as a "critical and independent media, without directors or bosses, resting on the base of thousands of subscribers".[2] In 2017 it was renamed El Salto after its merge with 20 other media, such as Pikara Magazine or El Salmón Contracorriente.[3][4]
