Grupo Zeta

Founded by Antonio Asensio in 1976, it launched the magazines Interviú and Tiempo before its most successful title, the daily newspaper El Periódico de Catalunya.

Interviú, which combined political news with interviews and photographs of semi-naked women, reached a circulation of 1 million by 1978.
