Guide: Kurdistan Media Landscape
This page is dedicated to the Kurdistan Media Landscape and serves as a comprehensive guide for those seeking background information on the media in the region. As the media landscape is dynamic and evolves with the political changes in the region, this page may be periodically updated.
For our paid subscribers: if you have any specific questions about the list below or any other Kurdish media, you can message us here:
While the funding sources of the media are often opaque and lack transparency, the small media circles in the region make it possible to unofficially estimate the sources of funding for these media outlets. We have employed straightforward methods to verify media ownership, including publicly available knowledge, consulting well-connected journalists working in the region's media, and open sources. However, given the rapid changes in the media landscape, this guide, written in 2021, is already largely outdated. To address this, we have cross-verified the information through logical inference by examining the content and contacting sources with information about these media outlets, assessing the authenticity of the information regarding their funding sources accordingly.
