Diagonal was a Spanish biweekly alternative newspaper, 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". In 2017 it was renamed El Salto after its merge with 20 other media, such as Pikara Magazine or El Salmón Contracorriente. Diagonal can be traced back to 2003, when the grassroots collective editing the monthly newspaper "Molotov" decides to cease publication and start a broader newspaper. This initiative was joined by a wide spectrum of journalists and activists that formed the first promoter group. After two promotional issues, Diagonal started on March 3, 2005, date since it has continued being published regularly. Diagonal is considered one of the emerging newspapers in Spain which challenges the traditional newspapers represented by the Spanish Newspaper Publishers' Association, of which Diagonal is not part of.
