MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN BRUSSELS

Characterized by a distinctly bilingual market, the capital's newspaper landscape is heavily divided into French and Dutch daily publications, functioning alongside a specialized international press. Leading the Francophone readership is Le Soir, the historically dominant French-language daily founded in 1887, while De Standaard serves as one of the principal Dutch-language broadsheets. Additionally, the local concentration of European Union governance structures sustains dedicated English-language political publications such as Politico and EU Observer.
