MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN ROME
Serving as the headquarters for major national wire services, the Italian capital's print market is anchored by several historic, locally focused broadsheets. The leading daily is Il Messaggero, established in 1878 and currently owned by Caltagirone Editore, which competes with the traditionally conservative daily Il Tempo, founded in 1944. The market also sustains highly specialized publications like Il Romanista, a unique daily newspaper devoted entirely to covering a single professional football club. Paperboy lists 29 newspapers in Rome.
