MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN KAMPALA

Anchored by a structural split between state-backed publications and privately held dailies, the national press market is heavily centralized in the capital. The government-owned New Vision operates as the primary English-language daily, competing directly with the Monitor, an independent newspaper operated by Nation Media Group. Circulation also includes significant local-language readership, most notably through Bukedde, a Luganda daily published under the Vision Group umbrella, alongside privately owned tabloids like Red Pepper. Paperboy lists 8 newspapers in Kampala.
