Is the strategy of private partners to control Newsprint competitors. Consequently, 29% of domestic consumption must be imported. The data arising from the report accompanying the draft turned to Congress.
 
After President Cristina Fernandez submit the report Papel Prensa - The Truth, the alleged crimes against humanity committed in the process of ownership of the shares of the company occupied the front pages of the media. But the state also put the magnifying glass in the current situation of the company removed the Graiver in 1976 and how this affects the oligopoly in the publishing market. "Competitive Edge" and "exercise of dominant market position" is the phrase most often heard among public representatives in the company.

According to a document prepared by the Secretariat of Internal Trade, cited in the text drawn by the executive branch to Congress, "Newsprint production declined from 182000-166000 tonnes between 2004 and 2009. However, domestic demand in the main input for newspapers increased from 257000-262000 tonnes. Put another way: the paper needs of the media across the country grew, Clarin and La Nacion production decreased by 8% and imports increased by 11%.

In its edition of Sunday, August 22, Clarín published an editorial stating that "control role is to control information, a viewpoint that was adopted two days later by The Nation, in his criticism of the report released by the president. The numbers may require special attention in reading, but they serve to confirm the confession of media companies that control newsprint.

While the participation of the corporation in the Argentine paper market declined, the demand for private shareholders remained almost stable. In 2004, the "big day" consumed 72% of the company, while in 2006 only decreased to 69%. Grounds for the bill sent asserts that "discretion in the pricing mechanism operates as an exclusion of small producers and affects graphics new endeavors." A report by the entity Regional Newspapers Newspapers and Argentina, means not accessing the benefits of belonging to the select club of Newsprint will face a cost on its main input from 35 to 40%. Vale to keep in mind that 90% of the market for newspapers of up to regional media and not to nationals, making it the second-in fact-in newspapers in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires.

But the unilateral decision of quotas for access to the role of newspapers is not the only tool of private shareholders Paper Press to control the market. Paper prices demonstrate the benefit of the discretion to manage the company. Clarin and La Nacion pay Newsprint 538 and $ 539 per tonne respectively. For other newspapers, the cost of sales growing at $ 606 per tonne, although the import value of around $ 560 per tonne. In other words, it is import or walk in "good friends" with the private shareholders. Not only for the price, but because Clarin and La Nacion only sell the coils after satisfying their needs. At the penultimate meeting of members, representatives from the private to the state tried to explain that the discounts are benefits granted by the quantity and predictability of their orders.

According to the report of the Ministry of Internal Trade, Newsprint produces below its capacity. In 2004, the idle capacity of the plant in San Pedro was about 8%. Last year that number doubled. The conclusion is that six years ago the company was involved in 71% of the newsprint market and in 2009 dropped to 63%. Imports represent 29% of the needs of the country.

The representatives of the national State Newsprint working on three axes. The first is the alleged crimes against humanity committed during the transfer of shares Graiver family, the second is the dominant position that allowed Clarín and La Nación editorial control of the market across the country, and the third, irregularities in the management of the company. Pressure, torture and killings are a part of this story. The pacts with de facto governments, secret agreements between shareholders, the lack of rule and management at the discretion of the production, distribution and marketing of paper are also part of a secret, little by little, comes to light.
