VALLEJO M, Maryluz. Gil Blas' Irreverent Shout. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2011, n.38, pp.76-87. ISSN 0123-885X.

After the political rancor left by the XIX century country's civil wars, especially by the One-Thousand-Days War, the "Reyista Press" was born. This press was President Rafael Reyes's incense burner and an opposition instrument to the 'Quinquenio regime' characterized by a satiric, incendiary and polemic tone, which, at the same time, was the continuation of a rich tradition. Once the 'Quinquenio regime' was overthrown, three political forces gain momentum within the Liberal Press: The Republican Press-that supported the presidential nomination of journalist Carlos E. Restrepo-with Alfonso Villegas Restrepo, Eduardo and Enrique Santos Montejo, Enrique Olaya Herrera and the Cano family; the 'Bloquista' Press, lead by General Rafael Uribe Uribe; and the Opposite Press with Benjamín Palacio Uribe, founder of Gil Blas newspaper in 1910. Due to its investigative spirit, Gil Blas newspaper served as an inspiration for Colombian contemporary journalism of the Bicentennial. With this satirical poster, the saints of the Republican Press fell off their shelves in this so-called 'Indigenous Athens.'
