Diariong Tagalog

Diariong Tagalog (lit. Tagalog Newspaper) was a patriotic newspaper in Tagalog and Spanish published during the Spanish occupation of the Philippines. It was founded by Marcelo H. del Pilar, Basilio Teodoro Morán, and Pascual H. Poblete in 1882, while Francisco Calvo y Múñoz funded the printing of the newspaper. Diariong Tagalog was the first newspaper to publish articles urging government reform and denouncing the abuse of the Spanish friars.
