The mass media in Paraguay includes radio, television, newspapers, and the internet. As in many South American countries, radio is an important disseminator of information in Paraguay. More than 70 commercial and community radio stations broadcast daily across the nation. Paraguay also has four television stations and, as of 2004, about 750,000 households with televisions. The country also has eight major daily newspapers, which have a combined circulation of about 150,000 copies daily.

Freedom of the press

The free practice of journalism is guaranteed under the Paraguay Constitution and national laws. Constitutional guarantees for freedoms of expression and of the press are unevenly upheld. Corrupt authorities and criminal organizations exert pressure on journalists and occasionally subject them to deadly attacks.
