ContraPunto emerged as a magazine to deal with Latin American political and social phenomena. The project was based in Quito, Ecuador. However, in 2008, he took a turn and became a Salvadoran midfielder. The idea of ​​being a Latin American magazine did not come to fruition, it had been an overly ambitious plan. Since 2008 the project headed towards transforming into a daily publication and began to incorporate local editors (Salvadorans), mostly young university students or recent graduates. A video production platform was also created. In 2010 the transition to a daily broadcast medium was completed. ContraPunto was born as a space made up of journalists. Unlike other media, Diario Digital ContraPunto has never had ownership ties with business, political or social groups.
