The mass media in Peru includes a variety of different types of media, including television, radio, cinema, newspapers, magazines, and Internet-based web sites. Much of the print-based media in Peru is over a century old, with some newspapers even dating back to the time of independence.
Peru's media organizations control the public sphere, with wealthy families controlling much of the media and influencing decisions in the nation to serve their economic interests.[1][2][3] About 80% of the largest media companies in Peru are owned by relatives of the same family.[4] The mainstream media in Peru is typically economically and politically conservative.[5] Since the 2020s, previously reputable mainstream outlets began to spread pseudoscience regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and political disinformation, resulting with increased political polarization.[2][5] Trusted media has turned towards independent media websites that have assumed the investigative journalism in the nation,[5] with the two leading investigative organizations being IDL-Reporteros and OjoPúblico.[6]
