When her father died in 1913 she and her brothers took charge of the newspaper ''El Fonógrafo'' and of the publishing house ''Imprenta Americana''.〔Padrón, Pedro Luis, ''Teresa López Bustamante'', article published in the newspaper "Panorama", Maracaibo, Venezuela, April 28, 1992.〕 Due to its support of the Allies during World War I, in 1917 Venezuelan president Juan Vicente Gómez permanently closed down the newspaper ''El Fonógrafo'' and consequently the editorial house. Her brothers were imprisoned and the government began to watch and isolate Teresa. She was forbidden to leave the city of Maracaibo and to write in any other newspaper.〔Tarre Murzi, Alfredo, Biografía de Maracaibo (Maracaibo biography), Ed.
