The paper was founded by Vittorio Bersezio, a journalist and novelist, in February 1867[1][2] with the name Gazzetta Piemontese.[3] In 1895, the newspaper was bought (and by then edited) by Alfredo Frassati (father of Pier Giorgio Frassati), who gave it its current name and a national perspective.[3] For criticising the 1924 murder of the socialistGiacomo Matteotti, he was forced to resign and sell the newspaper to Giovanni Agnelli.[3] The financier Riccardo Gualino also took a share.[4] The paper is now owned by GEDI Gruppo Editoriale,[5] and has a centrist stance.[6] The former contributors of La Stampa include Italian novelist Alberto Moravia.[7]
Since 26 May 2006, it has published a monthly magazine: Specchio+. From 26 January 1996 to 7 April 2006, it was called Specchio, which was published as a weekly supplement, a general interest magazine.[14]
In September 2012 La Stampa moved to its new headquarters in Turin, leaving its historical editorial building.[2] Mario Calabresi is the editor-in-chief of the daily.[15][16][17]
In June 2017, during the celebration for its 150 years of activity, La Stampa hosted the international conference "The Future of Newspaper", where many great actors of the news industry discussed about the future prospects for the news agencies. Among them John Elkann, editor of La Stampa, Jeff Bezos from The Washington Post, Louis Dreyfus CEO of Le Monde and Mark Thompson CEO of The New York Times.[19]
In April 2020, Maurizio Molinari was appointed as new editor of la Repubblica and was replaced by Massimo Giannini (former journalist of la Repubblica and Radio Capital). Under his guide, La Stampa moved to a mild centre-left position.[20]
