CEOAFRICA.com gathered that new editors for Cuba’s two major newspapers have been appointed.

We learnt that the decision to replace the editorial command of the two papers was taken by the Communist Party's Politburo.

 During the Party's congress in the summer, politicians called for a new type of journalism in Cuba, with less self-censorship and secrecy. The Communist Party described the shake up in the island's tightly controlled media as a "renewal".

Granma is the Politburo's official newspaper and Juventud Rebelde the daily of the Party's youth wing.
