Jornal de Notícias (lit. 'News Journal'; shortened to JN) is a Portuguese daily national newspaper, one of the oldest in Portugal.
History and profile
JN was founded in Porto[1] and was first published on 21 June 1888.[2] It was one of two Portuguese newspapers published in Angola during the colonial rule.[3] The other was Diário Popular.[3] JN has since become one of the most popular newspapers, especially after the Carnation Revolution.
Following the Carnation revolution, JN was nationalized and later privatized in the early 1990s.[4]
