Public subsidies in Spain keep private media afloat, raising financial concerns.
The article looks at how much money the government gives to media companies in different parts of Spain. They studied subsidies given from 2018 to 2020 in nine regions. They found that the press gets the most money, but they don't rely on it much. Some radio and TV stations depend a lot on public funding to stay in business. In some cases, public subsidies make up over 20% of a media company's income, and even 50% in some cases.
