Jordan has one of the Middle East's most pluralistic and respected media landscapes, with a long tradition of independent journalism balanced alongside state media. Jordanian newspapers serve a population of over 10 million — including a large Palestinian diaspora — and play a significant regional role given Amman's position as a diplomatic hub and refuge for journalists from across the Arab world. The country hosts major international media bureaus and serves as a base for pan-Arab reporting.
Among the most widely read Jordanian newspapers online is Ad Dustour, Jordan's oldest and most established daily. Al Ghad and Al Ra'i are the other major Arabic dailies, while Jordan Times is the country's English-language newspaper of record, founded in 1975. For digital news, Saraya News, Khaberni and Ammon News are the most visited portals. Roya TV is Jordan's most popular private television channel.
