MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN SPAIN

Historically centered in Madrid and Barcelona, the national press market is defined by clear ideological lines and deep-rooted regional loyalties. The sector is led by El Pais, a centre-left daily owned by PRISA, which competes closely with the centre-right publication El Mundo. Founded in 1903, the conservative ABC remains notable for its distinctive compact format and monarchist stance. Readership outside the capital is exceptionally strong across the autonomous communities, highlighted by major titles like the Barcelona-based La Vanguardia, which prints in both Catalan and Spanish, alongside El Correo in the Basque Country.
