MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN UGANDA
Print media in this East African nation dates back to the early twentieth century and centers around the capital, Kampala. The market is primarily led by two major English dailies: New Vision, a government-owned broadsheet established in 1986, and Daily Monitor, an independent paper operated by the Nation Media Group. The independently owned bi-weekly The Observer provides alternative reporting, while Red Pepper circulates as a prominent daily tabloid. Beyond English editions, the highly popular state-owned Luganda-language daily Bukedde maintains significant rural and urban readership across the central region.
