Defunct Italian-language newspapers

Italian weekly newspaper, 1919–1925

'''''L'Ora''''' (English: "The Hour") was a Sicilian daily newspaper published in Palermo. The paper was founded in 1900 and stopped being published in 1992. In the 1950s–1980s the evening paper was known for its investigative reporting about political corruption in Palermo and into the Sicilian Mafia, when the Italian Communist Party took ownership. The Mafia made it a target: a bomb exploded in the press room in 1958, and its journalists Cosimo Cristina and Giovanni Spampinato were murdered in 1960 and 1972, while investigative reporter Mauro De Mauro disappeared without trace in 1970.
