About La República
La República was founded in 1981 by Gustavo Mohme Llona, a former member of the Peruvian Congress. Following his death in 2000, the Grupo La República, which owns the newspaper, has been owned by his son, Gustavo Adolfo Mohme Seminario.
Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC) rates La República as Left-Center biased, based on story selection and editorial positions that moderately favor the left. Both MBFC and Ground News rate La República as High for factual reporting.

Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has warned of a 'major offensive' against press freedom in Peru, citing judicial harassment, legislative initiatives, and violence against journalists, including murders. La República has reported on controversies surrounding the current President Dina Boluarte, including allegations of illicit enrichment and family controversies.
