Last Lines for Bankrupt Eleftherotypia Daily

Eleftherotypia daily newspaper was founded after the fall of the military dictatorship in 1974 and was one of the leading journalism voices in Greece. That was until today at least.
“The Paper of Journalists”, as its credo goes, has gone bankrupt, according to its publisher’s announcement on Tuesday afternoon. The abrupt end of its issuing came after Alpha Bank denied a new loan to the newspaper. As a result Mrs. Tegopoulou informed everyone briefly on the newspaper issue halt due to severe financial difficulties.
After her announcement, Mrs. Tegopoulou went to her house and directors of the newspaper are visiting her in an attempt of talking her out of halting the newspaper’s issue.
For the past years the newspaper had been in the maelstrom of many financial problems and most of its news writers and editors had been unpaid since July.
