Late is a native Bolivian digital media about traditional and electronic sports. It was founded in 2013 by the systems engineer and senior technicians in sports journalism Roberto Acosta, the communicator and publicist Dieter López and the communicator Carlos Terán. They covered the soccer World Cups in Brazil 2014, Russia 2918 and Qatar 2022, as well as the last Copa América. In addition to football, they cover the disciplines of basketball, volleyball, futsal, swimming, tennis, motorsports, electronic sports and others. Its sections are Late Olympic, Bolivians around the World, Lateratura, Late Retro and Late Active. The latter is an action in the context of the coronavirus health crisis aimed at sports and fitness ventures. The Late medium seeks to become a bridge between them and their community of readers through information. The first step consists of identifying and getting to know each other by filling out a form indicating the services offered during the quarantine. "#LateActive is a platform that will help us keep the mind and body active; releasing endorphins helps the soul have better health and emotional well-being," it is described on its website.
