Agustin's Newspaper (Spanish: El diario de Agustín) is a 2008 Chilean documentary film directed by Ignacio Agüero.

Plot

Journalism students start an investigation about the editorial line of El Mercurio S.A.P., a media corporation owned by Agustín Edwards Eastman that publishes Chilean daily newspapers El Mercurio, La Segunda, and Las Últimas Noticias.

The documentary focuses particularly on the role of El Mercurio, Chile’s leading conservative newspaper. The events covered include the land reform that occurred during the Eduardo Frei Montalva government, the opposition to Salvador Allende, the collaboration with Augusto Pinochet's military government, and the position held until the arrival of democracy in Chile. Overall, it presents a strong indictment of the newspaper and its editor,[1] which are accused of public opinion manipulation, especially with disinformation campaigns.
