MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN GREECE
Historically rooted in strong partisan affiliations, the national press operates in a highly fragmented market currently facing some of Europe's lowest levels of news trust due to businessman ownership concerns. Major publications include Kathimerini, a centre-right daily widely considered the country's paper of record, and Ta Nea, a prominent centre-left title owned by Alter Ego Media. To Vima operates as an influential Sunday broadsheet, while Efimerida ton Syntakton stands out for its cooperative ownership model. English-language readers are served by Kathimerini's international edition, alongside prominent regional dailies like Makedonia catering to Thessaloniki.
