A large range of magazines are sold in Mascylla covering most interests and potential topics for current affairs, politics, economics, sciences, and contemporary culture. Certain magazines and journals have achieved worldwide circulation and have been translated into multiple languages, most notably ''Erkunder'', ''Natur'', ''Handelsblatt'', ''Exact'' and ''Zeiten''.

Magazines as a media has achieved significant importance and remains a key competitor to the traditional newspapers. While most major magazines are distributed through limited companies in favor of specializing in the release of one certain media instead of a diversifying, a growing number of monthly and weekly magazines are attributed to the Müller Media Group, which is in turn a subsidiary of  Henschke+Bertelsmann, an internationally significant literature distributor and media conglomerate. The Sohlbrecht AG poses a counterpart to Müller, whose published magazines, including ''Exact'' and ''Zeiten'', retain large creative autonomy in exchange for their affiliation to the publisher. The remainder of magazines are not completely independent however, with usually a portion of their stocks being owned by other corporations; for example ENS owns 30% of ''Aurora'', while Sohlbrecht retains 45% of ''wissenkompakt'' despite it being published by Müller.

==Newspapers==

The Mascyllary print media market, though diversified, is recognized as one of the most concentrated media markets in the world. The most popular daily paper is the ''Faktor'' and its various subsidiaries and specialized papers, easily surpassing one million copies sold nationally every day. Other major daily published newspapers are the ''Langquaider Zeitung'', ''Westmaskillisches Blatt'' and ''Globale Allgemeine Zeitung'', thoug regarded more highly for their content quality and appropiate journalism, which the ''Faktor'' was repeatedly criticized of lacking. Unusually, almost all Mascyllary print media publishers jointly operate the ''Maskillischer Presserat'' voluntarily as a body for their own self control. The council is a government-approved body for complaint and report, which through its senate can decide whether or not an article or media applies to the ethical standards of the national honorary press codex (''Maskillischer Presseehrenkodex'') and if it sees a file of report fit.

===Regional or local newspapers===

Regional and local newspapers of cities, regions, towns, municipalities, and other also achieve note-worthy circulation numbers and are historically popular. These are a few popular ones (the list is not exhaustive): ''Augusthaler Kurier'' (110,107 copies; December 2019), ''Jusländer Volkskurier'' (96,772), ''Königsreher Allgemeine'' (127,284), ''Flussmunder Schau'' (107,610), ''Königlicher Bote'' (85,000), ''Mögdpresse'' (30,498), ''Nordbote'' (136,201), ''Öhrenlandpost'' (83,505), ''Pereuther Zeitung'' (87,463), ''Weidenauer Zeitung'' (25,948), and ''Wilhelmshagener Anzeiger'' (75,675).

===Newspapers of non-Hesurian-language===

Due to Mascylla's diverse makeup of minority languages, numerous editorials or small townships publish their own non-Hesurian-language newspapers. Among the most widely circulated newspapers are: ''The Tharau Boder'' (published in {{wp|Anglish|Cuthish}} in Tharau), ''The Daybook'' (published in Cuthish in Warthburg), ''Sigairen Airut'' (published in {{wp|Finnish language|Valimian}} in Sigairen), ''Ankerstolpe'' (published in {{wp|Danish language|X}} in Isel-Jansdorf), ''Günlük Haberler'' (published in {{wp|Turkish language|X}} in Estmar-Rathfeld), ''Yeni Dergi'' (published in {{wp|Turkish language|X}} in Kützdorf), and ''Feliske źinsa'' (published in {{wp|Sorbian language|Falian}} in Sorbus).

===Tabloid newspapers (''Boulevard'' style)===

[[File:Faktor cover.png|210px|thumb|right|21 August 2018 front page of ''Faktor'']]

Tabloid newspapers are a style of newspapers, characterised by big headlines, bright colours, attention-grabbers, sensational stories and controversial topics. In Mascylla, they are referred to as ''Schreizeitungen'' (literally "screaming newspapers" for their evasive design) or ''Palettenpresse'' ("palette press" for its colourful imagery and wide mix of topics), rarely also ''Boulevardzeitungen'' (roughly translated as "popular papers").

* ''Faktor'' (1,102,374 copies), with several sister newspapers suited for certain regions or cities (such as ''WeidenFaktor'' or ''AugusFaktor'') and a Sunday newspaper (''SonntagsFaktor''; 725,483 copies). Its page format is unusually large for a tabloid newspaper, but is not counted as a broadsheet newspaper for its contents and design.
* ''Express'' (483,021)
* ''Aktuelle'' (426,352), with its sister newspapers ''Aktuelle am Sonntag'' (198,271) and ''Aktueller Sport'' (93,488)
* ''Schau'' (232,896), with its sister newspaper ''Monatsschau'' (165,750)
* ''Welt am Morgen'' (173,928)
* ''Skandal'' (82,346)
* ''Kontrovers'' (75,028)
* ''Sterne'' (56,552)
* ''Königsreher Post'' (21,479)

==Radio==
[[File:Mascyllary public broadcasters.png|270px|thumb|right|Mascyllary public broadcaster service area map]]

Radio in Mascylla is largely dominated by the public broadcasters of the state, which operate radio stations throughout the country. The domestic services of these broadcasters and all their revenue are funded by their television and broadcasting license. Rather than operating as independent entities, many radio studios are owned by large radio groups which broadcast a similar format to multiple regions. These are either the state-owned ''NMR'', ''MBR'', ''RKN'' or ''RBK'', ''ZMR'', ''RW'', ''SRF'', ''DMR'' and ''AR'', and the privately owned ''Maskradio'', ''Urbaner Rundfunk'', various ''FM'' and ''Radio'' formats, and ''StudioNation''.

Mascylla has eight regional public radio broadcasters in service, though all are also thoroughly active in broadcasting their own television channels as well. They cooperate in production value, general themes or topics, branding and advertisement and cultural event planning. These broadcasters are:

''Nordmaskillischer Rundfunk'' – North Mascyllary Broadcasting – incorporating the states of Aldia, Halstein, Jusland, and Pereuth, ''Maschkenbuchter Rundfunk'' – Mask Bight Broadcasting – in Flussmund, Kreshia, Langquaid, Laurenz, and Nelgery, ''Rundfunk Königsnah'' (or ''Rundfunk beim König'') – Broadcasting near the King – in the Kronlande and Eustria, ''Zentralmaskillischer Rundfunk'' – Central Mascyllary Broadcasting – in Elspland, Falia, Folnery, and Shwesia, ''Rundfunk an der Warne'' – Broadcasting at the Worne – in Terunder-Welsbach and Tudonia, ''Südlicher Rundfunk'' – Southern Broadcasting – in Gotia, Holnia, and Sigismund, ''Delchsmaskillischer Rundfunk'' – Delcian Mascyllary Broadcasting – in Ihlarn, and ''Adwhischer Rundfunk'' – Adwhinish Broadcasting – in Adwhin
