Chilango is a monthly entertainment Mexican magazine launched in 2003 in Mexico City.
The self-acceptance of the term lead to the publication of the magazine as a way to subvert prejudices that people from the inner states of Mexico had about chilangos, originally created and intended by them as an offensive name.
In 2014, the businessman César Pérez Barnes bought Grupo Expánsion and Chilango from Time Inc..[3] In 2017, Grupo Expánsion was sold again, to the advertising company Cinco M Dos owned by Édgar Farah, but the magazine Chilango had been sold separately to Gustavo Guzmán, also owner of the magazine Más por Más.
[2] The concession of the 105.3 MHz frequency (by Eduardo Henkel) came with the rights for the magazine to broadcast television content and provide telecommunication services.
Later issues included new phrases such as "la ciudad que vale la pena vivir" (the worthy city to live) or "haz patria y levantamiento de tarro olímpico" (perform patriotism and olympic beer mug lifting).
