'''''Alo!''''' is a daily [[Tabloid journalism|tabloid]] newspaper published in [[Belgrade]], [[Serbia]].

== History ==
Launched by [[Ringier AG]] (owners of another Serbian daily ''[[Blic (newspaper)|Blic]]'') on October 15, 2007, ''Alo!'' attempts to establish itself on the saturated Serbian daily tabloid market through aggressive campaign that announces it as 'Najveće dnevne novine u Srbiji' ("The biggest daily in Serbia") – referring to its format size. Its editor-in-chief is Ana Ćubela and it is published on 16 pages every day. On October 12, 2009, the daily has changed the format and design, where the newspaper's slogan "Najveće dnevne novine u Srbiji" has dropped, introducing the new billboard campaign "Cela slika na manjem formatu" ("A whole picture on less format").

It also tries to gain market share by initially setting its price at [[Serbian dinar|RSD]]30, which is lower than other established Serbian tabloids such as ''[[Blic (newspaper)|Blic]]'' and ''[[Kurir]]'' that are sold at RSD45. ''Alo!''s first two issues were distributed for free.<small>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071017064629/http://ndnv.org/vest.php?id=3634]</small>

''Alo!'' appeared on the Serbian market around the time many other similar tabloid dailies such as ''[[Pravda (Serbia)|Pravda]]'', ''[[Sutra (newspaper)|Sutra]]'', and ''[[Gazeta (Serbia)|Gazeta]]'' hit the stands as well, raising questions of their financial viability and political allegiance.<small>[http://www.mtsmondo.com/news/world/text.php?vest=74513]</small><small>[http://www.b92.net/info/vesti/index.php?yyyy=2007&mm=10&dd=21&nav_id=268767]</small><small>[https://web.archive.org/web/20110217085242/http://kablovskiforum.7.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?p=24440]</small>

In 2010, when Ringier AG and [[Axel Springer AG]] launched a new joint venture Ringier Axel Springer Media AG, ''Alo!'' got incorporated among the assets of the newly created company.

According to the investigative journalist organisation KRIK, ''Alo'' published over 321 biased and unfounded articles in its newspaper in 2024.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Vučić |first=Marija |last2=Ljubičić |first2=Milica |last3=Kosanović |first3=Stefan |last4=Radojević |first4=Vesna |date=24 April 2025 |title=Šest novina, više od 1.400 manipulacija: Kako su izgledale naslovnice 2024. godine |trans-title=Six newspapers, more than 1,400 manipulations: What the covers looked like in 2024 |url=https://raskrikavanje.rs/page.php?id=Sest-novina-vise-od-1-400-manipulacija-Kako-su-izgledale-naslovnice-2024--godine-1461 |access-date=2 May 2025 |work=KRIK |language=sr}}</ref>
