The strength of 26 lies in its people. This is a conviction that accompanies those of us who make up the newspaper today and an idea that is reiterated when we talk to our founders and many others who have been part of this team at different times. Because those who have experienced from the inside the ardor with which each day passes cannot see it differently. That is who we are.

 26 Digital is a pioneer in the transformation of the Cuban press model. |
On 26 July 1978, Periódico 26, the first daily newspaper in the history of the region, appeared for the first time on the shelves of Tunisia, smelling of fresh ink.

Nearing his 75th birthday, Oscar Herrera strikes me as a simple, curious, and jovial man, who has never let the innate journalist in him sleep completely. Perhaps because of this (and because habit is usually a beautiful vice), he inquires about the origins of the surname we share and who is the girl who now calls him "cazador" instead of "cazado".
