MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN LATVIA
Print journalism in this Baltic state carries a deep historical pedigree that is firmly rooted in the mid-nineteenth-century national awakening. Today, national circulation is anchored by Diena, a center-right daily established in 1990, alongside Latvijas Avize, a conservative publication founded in 1987 that maintains a highly loyal rural readership base. Business professionals traditionally turn to Dienas Bizness, a specialized financial newspaper published steadily since 1992. The broader print market closely reflects demographic realities, featuring a distinct division between majority Latvian-language titles and regional press exclusively serving the country's Russian-speaking minority.
