Is Poland still in need of regional daily newspapers?

The regional press constitutes a special element of media system in Poland. As far as geographical range is considered, the regional press operates on a daily basis while, conversely, the local press operates mainly on a weekly or monthly basis. That is why regional dailies are perceived as an essential part of the Polish media landscape. Recently, the situation of regional dailies has been changing dramatically. After years of competition, there is practically only one major company left on the market, namely Polska Press Grupa, subsidiary of German holding Verlagsgruppe Passau. Ongoing monopolisation does not work in favour of the readers as it leads to vanishing rivalry and – potentially – may result in public opinion manipulation. Simultaneously, the market is being eroded by debilitating circumstances, as readership and sales are dropping. This cannot be compensated by publishers’ activity in the digital sphere. Consequently, the future of described segment is unstable and uncertain. Finally, the new government is considering the ‘re-Polonisation’ of the media, regional press in particular. The new regulations are still in preparation. However, the idea gives rise to essential questions: whom regional dailies managed by the indicated by the government entities would serve and how this segment is going to survive in such complicated circumstances.

Czy paywall to być albo nie być wydawców prasy codziennej?

Adam Szynol

Zeszyty Prasoznawcze, Tom 62, Numer 4 (240), 2019, s. 11 - 30

Is Paywall Really A “To Be or Not To Be” Question for Daily Press Publishers?

The article is an attempt to systematize the term “paywall” in the light of research presented mainly in foreign publications, scientific journals in particular, also specialist magazines and popular public studies. Due to the lack of such publications in Poland, the author’s aim is to partially fill this gap. Additional objective was to carry out an overview of practical forms of introducing different ways of payments/subscriptions for the online content featured by the publishers. The author is making an effort to meet the expectations of both academics and practitioners seeking for synthetic studies on the subject.
