Media in Spain

Of the Spanish newspapers the best are the center-left El País and the center-right El Mundo, both of which have good arts and foreign news coverage, including comprehensive regional "what's on" listings and supplements every weekend. Other national papers include the solidly elitist ABC and Barcelona's nationalist La Vanguardia. The regional press is generally run by local magnates and is predominantly right-wing, though often supporting local autonomy movements. Nationalist press includes Avui in Catalunya, printed largely in Catalan, and the Basque papers El Correo Español del Pueblo Vasco, Deia and Gara, the last a supporter of ETA.

British newspapers and the International Herald Tribune are on sale in most large cities and resorts. There are also various English-language magazines produced by and for the expatriate communities in the main cities and on the costas; all are of limited interest, though occasionally they carry details of local events and entertainment.
