The Clinic is a partly satirical Chilean newspaper that offers analysis and opinion on politics, culture, and current affairs.

It was founded by Patricio Fernández Chadwick in November 1998, and includes a broad mix of cultural criticism, jokes, in-depth interviews, and investigative work.

[2] One of its humor features is done in a style reminiscent of Sergio Aragones' marginal cartoons in Mad Magazine: at the bottom of each page (except for the covers), the statement Sabía usted que...( Did you know that...?)

Another hallmark of The Clinic is its "shocking" covers, which often contain near-nudity and photoshopped heads, along with ironic or double-entendre captions.

Examples: The Clinic covers current events from a generally leftist position,[4] showing contempt for almost all other media outlets in the country, and mocking politicians of all stripes, from former military dictator Augusto Pinochet to the late communist leader Gladys Marín.
