Noticias de la Semana is a weekly newsmagazine in Spanish published in Argentina, where it is known simply as Noticias (News). Founded and published by Jorge Fontevecchia in a format similar to U.S. publications such as Time or Newsweek, Noticias was known as La Semana (The Week) until 1989 and is widely considered the leading Spanish-language newsmagazine in the world.

The magazine is also known in Argentina for its loss of photojournalist José Luis Cabezas, who was murdered in 1997 on the orders of local shipping magnate Alfredo Yabrán.

Néstor Kirchner denied monetary support to the magazine, as well to other media critical with his government, and priviledged supporting media instead.^[1] Editorial Perfil sued the government about this, and the Court supported the magazine's claim. Aníbal Fernández denied any discrimination, which was rejected by Perfil.^[2]
