El Tiempo Tour




























The Cuenca Chamber of Commerce arranges tours of local businesses of interest to the expat community. One of the tours was to El Tiempo, a family owned newspaper [The Times]. The offices and print facilities are housed in a building in Cuenca on Calle Loja. It was an interesting visit due mostly to the enthusiasm of the tour leaders. The father of the family and Chairman of the Board, and his daughter who went to college in Montana were the tour leaders. It was a very enjoyable tour. Each day's newsprint run is calibrated to the content of the newpaper. Their biggest day ever was the day they reported the death of Osama Bin Laden!
