List of newspapers in Themiclesia
[number] daily newspapers circulate nationally in Themiclesia, some issuing international editions in foreign markets. The primary publishing language is Shinasthana, though foreign-language editions exist and may see independent articles and editing in some columns. Unlike other places, Themiclesian newspapers generally do not distinguish Weekday and Sunday editions, with the exception of the Times of Themiclesia, which originated for the Tyrannian merchant community and inherits that distinction from the practice in Tyran.
Most nationally-circulating Themiclesian newspapers can be categorized into one of four groups: the ordinary press, the university press, the regimental press, and the tabloids. The ordinary press are newspapers in the usual sense and give coverage to a broad range of topics. The university presses, edited by faculty and students, focus mostly on political and social issues, since universities have historically been hotbeds for social reforms. Tabloids focus mostly on entertainment, sports, and sensational articles, characterized by melodramtic or shock journalism and skewed reporting. The regimental press are a waning category of newspapers formerly edited for military organizations but also their families and interested individuals, and a small number of them have achieved national circulation following broad conscription in the Pan-Septentrion War; these appear to be a uniquely-Themiclesian category of newspapers.
The ordinary and university presses are frequently compared to Tyrannian broadsheets for their journalistic depth and integrity in news stories, though the university presses typically have more extreme opinion columns.
