Berliner (format) - South American Newspapers

South American Newspapers

Jornal do Brasil, a daily Brazilian newspaper founded in 1891, was published in Berliner from 16 April 2006 until 31 August 2010, when the newspaper ceased to publish its physical issue and transferred all activities to the internet. Initially, only the newsstand edition was in that format, but its success made the format switch extend later to the subscriber's edition, which until then remained in broadsheet format.

In 2008, Salvador-based Correio* (formerly Correio da Bahia) switched to Berliner, also from broadsheet.

After being sold by Organizações Globo to J. Hawilla's Grupo Traffic, Diário de S. Paulo, which was a broadsheet, switched to Berliner, bringing it in line with its sister publications under Rede Bom Dia.
