MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN BAGHDAD
Following the 2003 regime change, the Iraqi capital's print media market transitioned into a highly fragmented, multi-paper landscape featuring a mix of state-funded dailies and privately owned publications. The government-sponsored Al Sabaah operates as the country's official daily record, while independently established alternatives like Al Mada provide contrasting national coverage in Arabic. Readers seeking dual-language reporting are served by titles such as Azzaman, which prints editions in both Arabic and English. Paperboy lists 9 newspapers in Baghdad.
