Il Tempo (meaning Time in English) [1] is a daily Italian newspaper published in Rome, Italy.

History and profile

Il Tempo was founded in Rome by Renato Angiolillo in 1944. [1] [2] At the initial phase the newspaper was a conservative publication and had an anti-communist stance. [1] The paper publishes the Rome edition (available nationally) and other five local editions ( Latina, Frosinone, Northern Lazio, Abruzzo and Molise).

In 1996 the former owner, Caltagirone Editore, sold the newspaper to the Italian builder Domenico Bonifaci. On 4 October 2007 the paper switched from broadsheet format to Berliner. [2] Domenico Fisichella, an Italian academic and politician, is among the contributors of the daily. [3]

The 2008 circulation of Il Tempo was 50,651 copies, [4] and 8,525 copies in July 2021. [5]
