Agerpres

Agerpres (stylised in all caps; Romanian pronunciation: [ˈad͡ʒerpres]) is the national news agency of Romania.

It was established in March 1889 at the initiative of Foreign Minister Petre P. Carp, as the Telegraph Agency of Romania or Romanian Agency with serving as a "fast and accurate service of all general or special interest news".

On 16 June 1921, it established the agency Orient-Radio, "caring only for the general interest and that of its subscribers".

The National News Agency returns to the AGERPRES name in July 2008, following the amendment of Law no.

On 17 September 2013, Agerpres went through a rebranding process that consisted of focusing on the online environment, enriching the multimedia area with an interactive video platform and introducing the concept of a complete journalist.
