Gramsci distinguishes non-party informational papers from official party organs

Evidence

A distinction is made between the so-called informational or ‘non-party’ paper (without an explicit party) and the official organ of a particular party; between the paper for the popular masses or ‘popular’ paper and that which is aimed at a necessarily restricted public. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 2131
