La Tribuna was a Paraguayan newspaper published in Asunción. Although its most well-known relaunch took place in 1925 under Eduardo Schaerer, the title was already in circulation in 1915 under the administration of Juan Ferrari. This earlier version became notable for covering the Villa Morra parricide. It was one of the most important daily newspapers in Paraguay's history. It was founded in 1925 in Asunción by Eduardo Schaerer, and was one of the country's leading newspapers for five decades. La Tribuna was the first Paraguayan paper to be widely published across the country. Politically, La Tribuna was positioned between liberalism and traditional national politics. It opposed especially the dictatorial regimes of Higinio Morínigo and Alfredo Stroessner.
