Media news service Servicio Español Sputnik has a target audience of some 500 million of Spanish-speaking Internet users across North and South America, Europe, Asia and Africa.

We offer a variety of opinions and takes on events, including those that are never voiced in other media," said Miguel Bas, head of the Spanish multimedia service, Servicio Español Sputnik.
More than 80 foreign-based correspondents are on its staff, gathering exclusive news stories, videos and photo materials for Sputnik Mundo, and preparing radio shows. Sputnik Mundo Moscow is available round the clock, with a Montevideo and Buenos Aires offices scheduled to open in 2015.
