get away (from a place), to manage to leave, to escape

Creo que en este caso iría get away ya que entiendo "diario" como periódico o publicación.

escape

Another possible translation, which I think may be slightly more likely (if "diario" has the meaning of daily expenses, "escape" would fit a little better than "flight").
