Introduction to Croatian News Media

Media in Croatia is operated by both state-owned as well as private corporations that depend on advertising and subscription for revenue. The media personals and organisations have been granted freedom of speech by the Constitution of Croatia. According to the Reporters Without Borders, Croatia was ranked 63rd in the 2016 Press Freedom Index. In 2015, the country had ranked 70.

Government Monopoly

The national broadcasting media was dominated by the government-funded corporation Croatian Radio Television (HRT) until the late 1990s. However, the government reorganised HRT as a separate company Transmitters and Communications Ltd (OiV) that helped private players enter the business of broadcasting.

In 2000, the first privately owned channel, Nova TV, was launched after getting license from OiV. In 2014, another private channel RTL joined the Croatian broadcasting market. Both Nova TV and RTL are owned by the foreign based companies.

Jutarnji list, 24sata and Ve?ernji list are among the most prominent newspapers owned by the two groups mentioned above. Novi list is another popular privately owned daily newspaper in Croatia.

Conclusion

The government of Croatia does not control the national media completely. However, state sponsored broadcaster HRT generates revenue by issuing license to the emerging private networks and advertisements. Private channels have started to give the national broadcaster a stiff competition as most of the audience is now shifting towards the private broadcasters for news.

Nova TV, which is owned by an investment company from the United States, is the most popular news network in Croatia.

News Sources

Even though the adult literacy rate of Croatia is high and rising, television remains to be the biggest source of news for many of the Croatians even today. The internet media is evolving in the region and trying to capture the market with a digital terrestrial television (DTT) service. Add to that, Croatia has well established cable system, satellite operators and internet protocol television (IPTV) operators.

Government broadcaster HRT owns and operate a radio channel as well. Some of the national and local commercial radio networks are owned by the private companies.

Foreign Media Domination

The print media of Croatia is dominated by media companies based in Austria and Germany. A tabloid called 24 Sata is the most selling newspaper of Croatia. However, just like the other parts of the world, circulation figures for the printed newspapers are falling in Croatia as well.

Most of the Croatian newspapers have their presence on the web and various social media platforms as well.
