La Stampa is one of the best-known and most widely sold Italian daily newspapers, published in Turin and distributed in Italy and in other nations in Europe. It is currently owned by the Agnelli family.
It was founded in 1867 with the name Gazzetta Piemontese. In 1895 the newspaper was bought (and by then directed) by Alfredo Frassati, who gave it its current name and a national perspective. For criticising the murder of Giacomo Matteotti, he was forced to resign and sell the newspaper to Giovanni Agnelli.
It launched a website in 1999.
