Who runs the media in Peru?

The media influence the daily lives of countless citizens, shaping national and international public opinion,
setting the political agenda of the state and presenting a view of the past and present from a particular point of
view.
In the last 20 years, strengthened by the arrival of the Internet and the biggest technology companies, media
companies have achieved a reach never previously seen, in parallel with their transformation into huge
multimedia groups carrying significant weight in other sectors of the economy.
Since their advent, they have become a key part of the democratic system, the rule of law and the protection
and dissemination of the rights of the individual in society, including freedom of information and expression.
These are keystones of the very existence of society and guarantors of a free and plural public opinion.
Plurality in the information and opinions available to the public is one of the prerequisites for freedom of
expression. Media monopolies—and the use of a single source of information to present a fragmented and
partial view of reality—is a barrier to the spread of individual thought.
It can be claimed that a society that is uninformed, is not free. It is therefore important that society knows who
the real owners of the media are, who are their financiers, how many media they own, how much money they
invest in other businesses and if they have political interests.
All this information enables the state, the citizens and the journalists themselves, to know which interests
underpin the information we read in the newspapers, hear on the radio, see on the television and share on
social media.
The objective of this platform—prepared by the German chapter of Reporters Without Borders and the
investigative journalism digital media OjoPublico—is to reveal the world of the proprietors of news in Peru, and
above all, to report on those who report to us.

Introduction to the media
Peru´s media--print media, television and radio--were impacted like never before by events of the 1990s during
the authoritarian government of Alberto Fujimori. During that era, many journalists, directors and newspaper
proprietors were effectively bought with huge sums of money by the National Intelligence Service (SIN) that
was directed from the shadows by the then presidential adviser Vladimiro Montesinos.
As a result, some media were effectively under state control in a general sense and more specifically, in relation
to the second re-election which Fujimori sought in 2000. When this relationship was uncovered, Peruvian
justice sent many of those involved to prison, whilst others fled the country. These events completely
reconfigured the media market.

A complex market
Investigating the media market in Peru is complex and difficult work because although there are government
and academic studies, as well as reports from within the industry´s various sectors, there is no official census
which identifies the exact number of printed and digital newspapers and television and radio stations.
However, there are estimates which are helpful. In 2014, there were 125 traditional newspapers nationally
and 101 digital newspapers (31% of which were based in Lima), according to estimates in the book published
that year in Spain: Ciberperiodismo en Iberoamérica. The El Comercio Group owns 9 of the traditional
newspapers and 13 of the online newspapers.
While this may seem a minor share, the estimates of circulation and readership at national level are much
higher.
There are only 6 television channels which broadcast free-to-air on VHF frequency: Latina, América Televisión,
Panamericana Televisión, Tv Perú, ATV and NexTV. This concentrates the ownership of more than 45% of the
1,686 television stations existing nationally, according to ConcorTv (consulting body of the Ministry of Transport
and Communications). There are 5,257 radio stations.
Media advertising investment

In the last three years total advertising investment decreased from US$ 725 million in 2016 to US$668 in 2017.
Last year only reached US$620 million(some S/. 2077 million soles. Almost 50% is allocated to television, 11%
to newspapers and magazines, 13% to radio and 18% to Internet. The market research company CPI estimated
that in 2000, advertising investment totaled US$500 million (some 1.622 million soles).

Radio is the second most penetrative media in the country: 91% of homes have a radio and 86% of Peruvians
tune in from Monday to Friday for a little over two and a half hours, according to the 2017 Concortv study.
Although its reach has slowly diminished in recent years, it is still considered the most trustworthy media (by
25% of Peruvians) and the most neutral (27%).
Radio consumption is however, primarily for entertainment. Some 79% listen to music and only 43% listen to
news. This is reflected in the national rankings. According to the survey firm CPI (2018), there is only one news
broadcaster in the ten most popular: RPP. The remainder broadcast music and entertainment. Of the 17
measured by CPI, only three broadcast informative content.
CPR has decided that none of its radio stations will do so.
The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) has authorized 5,257 radio stations nationally. Each has a
limited geographic reach. To have coverage at national level, a company must have repeaters in more cities.
While many local radio stations influence public opinion in their region, there are just three radio groups with a
presence throughout the country, concentrating the majority of the audience GrupoRPP; CRP Medios y
Entretenimiento; Corporación Universal.
Eight of the 28 FM frequencies for Lima Metropolitan are controlled by CRP Medios y Entrentenimiento, and
seven are controlled by the RPP Group.

In some regions, the Delgado Nachtigall brothers (RPP Group) and Isabel Quispe Desposrio (Corporación
Universal) have sought licenses in their own names.
This can also generate advertising concentration. According to a CPI study in 2018, the radio stations obtained
US$ 82 million of the US$ 620 million which entered the media market in this category.
The stations measured by CPI belong only to four groups. The rest have no survey system which would allow
them to compete for advertising.
In recent years, the owners of these groups have diversified their investments, from real estate to the
entertainment industry. Some have particular political interests.

Consumption
Television is the country´s most consumed media; it is watched in 87% of homes, a figure which rises to 99% in
metropolitan Lima (INEI, 2015). A study prepared by CONCORTV found that more Peruvian homes have a
television than have an oven (99.1% versus 99.5%).
Average daily television consumption is calculated as 3 hours and 4 minutes (CONCORTV, 2017). According to
Ipsos Peru, the average television viewer in Lima is 35 years old and is 90% likely to be viewing free-to-air.
Some 30% use a different electronic device (such as a smartphone or a tablet) to watch a program (Ipsos,
2016).
The television viewing habits are highly concentrated. According to 2015 Kantar Ibope Media average figures,
three channels capture almost half the free-to-air signal. América Televisión (22.98%), Latina (16.38%) and ATV
(10.84%). According to INEI, 41.4% of Peruvian homes access cable television (61.6% de los hogares de Lima
Metropolitana).
“Vladivideos" and Corruption on TV

At the end of 2000, the broadcasting of the “Vladivideos”, secret recordings of meetings held by the presidential
adviser Vladimiro Montesinos Torres with politicians and business people in a room at the National Intelligence
Service, confirmed what had been an open secret: media proprietors had visited the “Doctor” to support the
second reelection of Alberto Fujimori, receive their instructions about journalism coverage and programming,
in exchange for legal favors and bundles with millions of dollars. Corruption had reached television, which
found itself more discredited than ever.
Following this, some media business identities (such as Ernesto Schütz Landázuri, of Panamericana Televisión;
Julio Vera Abad, of ATV; Eduardo Calmell del Solar, of Cable Canal de Noticias) fled the country and others
(such as José Francisco and Enrique Crousillat, of América Televisión or Samuel and Mendel Winter, of Latina)
were captured and jailed.
The television channels, discredited and without advertisers, entered a financial crisis. With some owners
imprisoned and others on the run, the administration of these media fell to other business people (for
example, Latina returned to its previous owner, Baruch Ivcher, prior to the arrival of of Enfoca Inversiones),
other consortia were formed (for example Plural TV, made up of El Comercio and La República, owners of
America Television) and creditor councils were constituted (for example Panamericana, ATV and Red TV, which
still continues) to settle outstanding debts. Over the following decade and with the country´s economic boom,
the television companies were able to climb out of their financial hole.

Characteristics of the Peruvian Television

There are currently 1,686 television stations at national level, of which 442 are UHF (Ultra High Frequency) and
1244 VHF (Very High Frequency). Lima, Puno, Cusco, Cajamarca and Ancash are the regions with the greatest
number of TV stations. Of the total, some 59% are commercial, while the remainder are educational. There are
no community stations in Peru.
Peruvian television is centralized: its contents are mainly produced in Lima and broadcast in the provinces by
repeaters located throughout the country. For analogue free-to-air there are six private channels operating on
the VHF band: Latina, América Televisión, Panamericana Televisión, ATV, NexTV, and the state channel: TV

The way in which audience is measured for the sector is a major problem (see Findings – Measuring audience).
Since 1996, Ibope Time Perú (today Kantar Ibope Media) has been the only company in the country which
specializes in surveying television audiences. However, it only measures its own clients. The highest rating
channel will garner the most advertising. If a channel´s audience share is not measured, it will not receive
revenue from advertising. The smallest channels, at regional and local level, with their smaller reach and
limited audience, are invisible to Ibope and the advertisers.
The goal: Digital Terrestrial Television

In 2010, the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) began to implement digital terrestrial television
(TDT), leading to the transition from analogue to digital technology. This change allowed the multiplying of
signals, with improved image and sound quality. The format chosen by the MTC was the Japanese-Brazillian
ISDB-T system (Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Terrestial). By June 2018 there were 53 TDT signals in
Lima, Callao and other regions of Peru.
Whilst initially the intention with digital technology was to promote the entry of new broadcasters and so
increase competition, during the Alan García government (2006-2007), there was an amendment to the rules
which permitted holders of analogue licenses to bid. Those with the more money, more stations and more
resources to implement and operate stations in remote areas, obtained the licenses. The government of
President Humala (2011-2016) postponed the “analogue blackout” until 2019 in Lima and indicated that by
2025 no broadcaster would be transmitting on the analogue band.

The print media market

Peru has a long tradition of print media dating back to the start of the 17th century. One of the
most emblematic was El Comercio, founded in 1839. Until the early years of the 20th century, the newspaper
market was dominated by three companies: El Comercio, of the Miro Quesada family, La Republica of the
Mohme Seminario family and Epensa of the Agois Banchero family.
Theses were the largest players in the market, even taking into account Expreso, an important media in Lima
which fell into disrepute after revelations that principal directors took money from the Fujimori Government,
important newspapers in the north of the country and the occasional appearance of any company which might
launch a title only to close it shortly afterwards.
Until 2012 the market was distributed in this way. El Comercio and La Republica had earlier associated to buy
América Televisión, today the principal television channel. The Association of Peruvian Journalism Companies
(SEPP) had also been recently formed.
The entire situation changed in 2013 when it was revealed that the company of the Miro Quesada family had
bought Epensa, at the time the proprietor of rival newspapers at national and regional level.
The event brutally reconfigured the media market. A group of journalists, including the Director of La
República, (Gustavo Mohme Seminario), three renowned columnists, (Augusto Álvarez Rodrich, Rosa María
Palacios y Mirko Lauer) and several other pressmen, filed a complaint before the courts for violation of
freedom of information owing to the “concentration” of 81% of newspaper circulation and 78% of advertising

revenue.
The complaint against El Comercio was supported by the Peruvian Constitution and the Radio and Television
Law, as well as jurisprudence which prohibits monopoly, oligopoly and cornering in the sector, particularly in
the category of radio and television. Following the accusation, the Miro Quesada family newspaper suggested
that there was no “concentration” since the word was not included in the text of the Constitution which refers
to the issue.
El Comercio--whose shareholders, executives, journalists and managers have greater links with the business
world than with the political class--currently owns nine newspapers. These include El Comercio, highly popular
in the higher socio economic groups; Trome, with the highest circulation and readership amongst lower socio
economic groups (with more than 700,000 copies printed each day); Depor, a sporting title and leader in its
field; Gestion, which specializes in economic news; and Publimetro, a free newpaper distributed in Lima.
It also owns other important newspapers: Perú21, Correo, Ojo and El Bocón (all bought from Epensa). The El
Comercio Group--which also distributes its newspapers in the north, center and south of the country--
reinforced its presence through Correo, a newspaper widely distributed throughout the country given that it
runs versions for 17 of the country´s 25 regions.
Advertising investment in Peru reached US$620 million in 2018, of which US$78 million went to the print media,
including newspapers and magazines, according to estimates by the market analysis company CPI.

The digital media market
The arrival of the Internet in Peru at the beginning of the 1990s revolutionized the mass media market, which
until that time had been dominated by television, radio and print media. Milestones during this era included: in
1991, during the government of Alberto Fujimori, the first email was sent; in 1993 the Peruvian Scientific
Network (RCP) become the administrator of domain names and IP numbers; in 1994 the first web site was
created.
In 1995 Caretas magazine launched the first online version of a traditional print publication. The country’s other
main media followed suit shortly afterwards: La República (1996), RPP (1996), Perú.com (1997), El Comercio
(1997) and América Televisión (1998), among others. Over the subsequent two decades, the digital
environment nationally and internationally has changed in ways not previously imaginable.
There are currently more than 12 million Internet users in Peru (39% of the population), making it the 7th
largest consumer market in Latin America. Some 66% of those who access digital media do so via their
computer and 30% through smartphones.
The online news market is dominated by the El Comercio Group, which has 15 digital media outlets (in 2010 the
group bought its competitor, Peru.com), the advertising investment exceeding S/350 million (US$107 million) in
2018. As is the case right around the world, the social networking giant Facebook has become the largest
distributor of virtual content and is one of the major advertising recipients.
A 2015 report by the Peruvian chapter of the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), indicated that 91.8% of
advertising sales went to just five digital media enterprises, headed by the Telefónica and Claro mobile

ten online media operators, the estimate reached a 98.7% concentration of the total advertising investment.
El Comercio is the digital news media outlet with the greatest Internet traffic
according to the IAB, recording an average of 20 million unique users per
month in 2015 and reaching a historic high of 25.7 million in June of that year.
Following some distance behind in IAB’s rankings were the online versions of

newspaper “La República”. Businessman, politician and journalist. He was a
civil engineer by profession. In 1955, he founded the construction company
"Woodman & Mohme" along with Arturo Woodman Pollit. This company
lasted 25 years and built important structures in the north of the country. He
was a member of the center party “Acción Popular (Popular Action).” Due to
some discrepancies with the president Fernando Belaunde Terry, he founded
the division “Acción Popular Socialista (Socialist Popular Action)” in 1967. In
1982 he founded the left-wing newspaper “La República” and, two years later,
the tabloid “El Popular.” In 1985 and 1990 he was elected Senator for
“Izquierda Unida (Left United).” His work was interrupted by the military coup
in 1992, but in 1995 he returned to Congress with Javier Perez de Cuellar’s
party, who was the former secretary-general of the United Nations. During
this period he was a strong opponent to Alberto Fujimori’s dictatorship both
in Congress and in the management of the newspaper. In the final years of
the Fujimori regime, he suffered slanderous attacks through the tabloid
newspapers, which were funded by the dictatorship. He died in 2000 when he
had been reelected congressman. The press room in the Peruvian Congress
bears his name, in recognition of his work. He had other companies: Empresa
Latinoamericana de Transporte S.A.C. (transport of heavy loads), Centro Laser

Guillermo Thorndike was one of the most important Peruvian journalists of

involved in the editorial offices of the newspapers Correo, La Crónica, El
Nacional, La Razón and the Frecuencia Latina and RBC channels. Before
arriving at La República, he worked as director of El Diario de Marka (left-
wing) and advised Alfonso Barrantes (Izquierda Unida) for the candidacy to
the municipality of Lima. He has written thirty books, among which a few that
stand out are: “El año de la barbarie (The year of barbarism),” “No, mi general
(No, my general),” “La revolución imposible (The impossible revolution),” “La
batalla de Lima (The battle of Lima),” “Banchero, los adolescentes y
alucinantes años 60 de Chimbote (Banchero, the teenagers and the amazing

1878),” “El rey de los tabloides (The King of the tabloids),” “Grau. La República
caníbal (Grau. Cannibal of the Republic),” “Grau. La traición y los héroes (Grau.

“Ocupación, Testigo. La edad de plomo (Occupation, Witness. The Age of
Lead),” “Gastronomía (Gastronomy)” and “Los topos: la fuga del MRTA de la
prisión de Canto Grande (Spies: The MRTAs Escape from Canto Grande
Prison).” He underwent some political directional changes. If he supported the
left in the 1980s, in 1990 he used Página Libre as a means to catapult Alberto
Fujimori’s candidacy, with support from the outgoing “Aprista” government. At
the end of the 90s, he worked for Frecuencia Latina when it was under control
of the Winter brothers, and affiliated with the Fujimori regime. He continued
in that same line at the newspaper La Razón even when the regime had
fallen.

Diario La República
This is one of the newspapers in circulation around the nation of the
highest prestige. Its editorial line is center-left wing. On Sundays it
comes the Supplemento Domingo (Sunday Supplement), which
publishes features. During Alberto Fujimori’s dictatorship, it was one
of the bastions of the opposition. On April 5th 1992, the day of the
autocoup, the newspaper was taken by the armed forces to censor
its content. The next day, La República was released with blank
pages in protest. The company’s Investigation Unit continued
publishing various investigations concerning corruption and Human
Rights violations that unravelled in that period. This made the government counterattack with a smear
campaign against Gustavo Mohme Llona in the tabloid press funded by the regime. La República has to this day
maintained a critical position on the Fujimori regime. In 2011 it supported Ollanta Humala’s candidacy,
considering that his contender was Alberto Fujimori’s daughter. That same year, the newspaper changed to a
Berlin-format. It gives considerable importance to the opinion section. With the appearance of political
newspapers being more economic, La República has lost sales. It has regional editions that are printed in Lima
(center), Chiclayo (north), Iquitos (east) and Arequipa (south). One of its main assets is to have Mario Vargas
Llosa’s fortnightly columns. It has an average circulation of 40 thousand daily newspapers sold nationally

Affiliated Interests Founder Gustavo Mohme Llona (1930-2000) was founder and director of the
newspaper “La República”. Businessman, politician and journalist. He was a
civil engineer by profession. In 1955, he founded the construction company
"Woodman & Mohme" along with Arturo Woodman Pollit. This company
lasted 25 years and built important structures in the north of the country. He
was a member of the center party “Acción Popular (Popular Action)” Due to
some discrepancies with the president Fernando Belaunde Terry, he founded
the division “Acción Popular Socialista (Socialist Popular Action)” in 1967. In
1982 he founded the left-wing newspaper “La República” and, two years later,
the tabloid “El Popular.” In 1985 and 1990 he was elected Senator for
“Izquierda Unida (Left United).” His work was interrupted by the military coup
in 1992, but in 1995 he returned to Congress with Javier Perez de Cuellar’s
party, who was the former secretary-general of the United Nations. During
this period he was a strong opponent to Alberto Fujimori’s dictatorship both
in Congress and in the management of the newspaper. In the final years of
the Fujimori regime, he suffered slanderous attacks through the tabloid
newspapers, which were funded by the dictatorship. He died in 2000 when he
had been reelected congressman. The press room in the Peruvian Congress
bears his name, in recognition of his work. He had other companies: Empresa
Latinoamericana de Transporte S.A.C. (transport of heavy loads), Centro Laser
Angamos S.A. (cosmetics), W & M Contrat Gnrales SA Cefoisa Asoc (building
construction) and Importadora y exportadora Angamos S.A. (Wholesale of

Guillermo Thorndike was one of the most important Peruvian journalists of

the second half of the 20th century. He founded the newspapers: Ojo, La
Crónica Libre, La República, El Popular and Página Libre. He has been
involved in the editorial offices of the newspapers Correo, La Crónica, El
Nacional, La Razón and the Frecuencia Latina and RBC channels. Before
arriving at La República, he worked as director of El Diario de Marka (left-
wing) and advised Alfonso Barrantes (Izquierda Unida) for the candidacy to
the municipality of Lima. He has written thirty books, among which a few that
stand out are: “El año de la barbarie (The year of barbarism)”, “No, mi general
(No, my general)”, “La revolución imposible (The impossible revolution),” “La
batalla de Lima (The battle of Lima),” “Banchero, los adolescentes y
alucinantes años 60 de Chimbote (Banchero, the teenagers and the amazing
60's in Chimbote),” “Grau. 1878 crimen perfecto (Grau. The perfect crime in
1878),” “El rey de los tabloides (The King of the tabloids),” “Grau. La República
caníbal (Grau. Cannibal of the Republic),” “Grau. La traición y los héroes (Grau.
Betrayal and Heroes),” “Grau. Caudillo, la ley (Grau. Leader, the law),” “Grau.
Los hijos de los libertadores (Grau. The children of the liberators),”
“Ocupación, Testigo. La edad de plomo (Occupation, Witness. The Age of
Lead),” “Gastronomía (Gastronomy)” and “Los topos: la fuga del MRTA de la
prisión de Canto Grande (Spies: The MRTAs Escape from Canto Grande
Prison).” He underwent some political directional changes. If he supported the
left in the 1980s, in 1990 he used Página Libre as a means to catapult Alberto
Fujimori’s candidacy, with support from the outgoing “Aprista” government. At
the end of the 90s, he worked for Frecuencia Latina when it was under control
of the Winter brothers, and affiliated with the Fujimori regime. He continued
in that same line at the newspaper La Razón even when the regime had
fallen.
Roberto Carrión Pollitt was an automotive businessman. He was chairman of

Banco Popular and Mayor of Lima.
Carlos Maraví Gutarra was an engineer who was involved in journalism. He

was one of the first directors. He also founded the magazine “Sí (Yes),” in
which important reports against the Fujimori regime were published. He was
chairman of the Swiss multinational Electrowatt.

La República was the first Peruvian daily newspaper to have a digital

on the print media. It started with the larepublica.com.pe website
and migrated to larepublica.pe in 2008. In 2004 they relaunched the
website which allowed easier access to the news. In 2006 a new
change was implemented prioritizing the most important news of the day in the first snapshot. A multimedia
section was added. News videos could be reproduced with flash. When they moved to the punto.pe domain,
they started to update their own news for the website. The La República Group formed a team to write their
own stories for larepublica.pe. Its content has a strong political component, which is also accompanied by
sensationalist content produced for a clickbait.

Radio Panamericana
Radio Panamericana (101.1 FM) is one of the few radio stations still
in force after 62 years of uninterrupted transmission. It was
founded in 1953 by Genaro Delgado Brandt and his sons Genaro
and Hector. Throughout its history, the radio has gone through
various musical genres: from being a news radio and playing
instrumental music in the beginning to having a team of DJs who put
the latest releases of rock and pop in Spanish and English during the
seventies. Today it is a station aimed at young and specialized in
salsa, boleros, bachata and other tropical adults.

was the first cable television company in Peru; and Tele2000, the first
cellphone company, which was then bought by Bellsouth. He filed several
lawsuits against the Freundt Schütz family in order to recover administration
of the channel. After losing these, he acquired Canal 13 in partnership with
the Mexican Angel González. Years later, he also lost that channel. He
founded several companies abroad: GDP Steel Inc., G.D. Parker Inc., M.Vanini
Investments Inc., Vilanova S.A., Inversiones Delgado Parker S.A. and
Corporación Vicmar S.A.
Hector Delgado Parker

enjoyed his first ventures in radio along with his then business partner, and
brother, Genaro. Worked for his father’s radio stations until Genaro decided
to drive the launch of the TV channel. He worked in sales and advertising at
Panamericana Televisión. He owned 15% of the shares, the same as his older
brother at the beginning. He founded several companies abroad: Amigo
Satellite Television Inc., Inversiones Delgado Parker S.A. and Alternativa
Tecnologica S.A. He was a friend and adviser to former President Alan García
Pérez during his first term in office. He was kidnapped for seven months by
the Movimiento Revolucionario Tupac Amaru in 1989. He died in 1995.

América Tv
América Televisión is currently the channel with the biggest
audience in Peru while some of its series and youth programs are
leaders in national ratings. At the beginning of 2016 it also signed an
alliance with ATV, the channel with second biggest audience in the
country, to share content production.
However, in the last few years Canal 4 has been criticized for its vulgar and racist content, for being contrary to
human dignity, as in broadcasting private content without authorization, and for violating the safe harbor
schedule. For this reason, in September 2016, América Televisión signed and added an addendum to the self-
regulatory pact in order to avoid these kinds of productions.
La Compañía Peruana de Radiofusión was established as a radio station in 1942 and, in 1958, became the first
channel to launch the television era in Peru. Between 1971 and 1980 the channel was controlled by a military
dictatorship.
In the 90s, the the founders’ successors sold Channel 4 to Televisa de México, to eventually pass it to the
businessmen José Enrique and José Francisco Crousillat. Both left the channel indebted and were involved in a
scandal for selling the editorial line of the aforesaid media organization to the former presidential advisor
Vladimiro Montesinos.
After the Crousillats fled, the channel was controlled by a board of creditors from 2003. Among the creditors,
those that stood out were “El Comercio” and “La República,” as well as the Colombian brewery “Bavaria.” At that
time, “El Comercio” sold Canal N to Plural Tv -a subsidiary of “El Comercio” (70%) and a minor part of “La
República” (30%)- with the intention of reinforcing advertising sales through both television channels.
In 2007, the Miró Quesada family bought the part of Bavaria and became the majority shareholder of América
Televisión. In 2010, the board of creditors was disbanded and Canal 4, along with Canal N, became definitive
parts of Plural Tv.

Panamericana Televisión
The third oldest channel in the country. In its prime it managed to
contend for the leadership of most-watched television channel, but
now its audience is low. None of its programs appears in Kantar
Ibope’s ranking of the 100 most-watched programs. It originated
from the company founded in 1959 by the brothers Genaro, Hector
and Manuel Delgado Parker, their father Genaro Delgado Brandt
and the Lindley family, which owns the Inca Kola soft drink factory. It
began broadcasting on channel 13 in 1959 and in 1965 it changed
the frequency to channel 5. Many important figures in
entertainment and journalism had spaces on this station. Almost all of them left for other media organizations
due to judicial and economic problems it faced because of the dispute over the channel’s administration
between Genaro Delgado Parker and the Schütz family. It is known as “la esquina de la televisión (the
cornerstone of television”). Charitable events and competitions were held abroad. In 2015, the company struck
a trade agreement with Enfoca, owners of Latina Televisión. Details of the deal are unknown. The only
information that was provided was that the purpose of the alliance was to sell more advertisement and share
their productions. Its programming schedule is currently decided in the Rating Committee meetings that are

TV Perú
TV Perú is the nation’s public broadcaster. It is part of the Instituto
Nacional de Radio y Televisión del Perú (IRTP), a public body
affiliated with the Ministry of Culture. It is the oldest channel in Peru
(its first broadcast dates from 1958), it has the best signal and
highest level of coverage (it owns 28% of the TV stations in the
country, according Concor TV). Its programming has informative,
educational, cultural and entertainment content. Manages four frequencies: TV Perú (7.1), TV Perú HD (7.2), TV
Perú Noticias (7.3) and Canal IPe (7.4). The independence of the state channel has been questioned on more
than one occasion due to previous governments having used its signal for propaganda, particularly during the
Fujimori era and Alan Garcia's second term in office. Interrupting the channel’s regular programming to
broadcast the activities of the head of state live has been a frequent and questionable practice, especially when
what is transmitted are public rallies organized a few weeks before election day, which can be taken as an act
advocating in favor of the political party in power. During the outgoing government of Ollanta Humala, the
presence of Nadine Heredia on TV Perú’s official broadcasts was questioned (the channel even covered a
birthday celebration of the former first lady). It was speculated that the state channel was being used to
support the presidential candidacy of Heredia, which ultimately never happened.

the Wong group invested in the construction of a television studio in
the Plaza Norte Mall -owned by E W Corporation- and the station
changed its line. It became a channel aimed at emerging sectors in
North Lima, where its premium content was popular entertainment.
Between 2013 and 2015, the E W Corporation had invested USD10 million and expected to invest USD10 million
more for the period 2016-2017. In 2016 they began broadcasting via “Televisión Digital Terrestre (Digital

Peruvian economist born in Lima in 1955. Son of the late Enrique Agois
Paulsen and Olga Banchero Rossi. He is also the fishing tycoon Luis Banchero
Rossi’s nephew. He has been shareholder and chairman of the board at
Epensa (now Prensmart) since 2014. After the fall of Alberto Fujimori's regime,
Congress asked the Public Prosecutor's Office to investigate Luis Agois for
being part of Vladimiro Montesinos’ criminal organization, resorting to the
deactivated Servicio de Inteligencia Nacional (National Intelligence Service)
(SIN), and selling the editorial line of his media organizations in exchange for
money in order to promote the third re-election of Fujimori. * Faced with a
government inquiry, Agois Banchero admitted to visiting the SIN, but that he
refused to receive money from the former presidential candidate. "I only
went to meet him [twice in 1999] to talk about national issues such as signing
the peace agreement with Ecuador" said Luis Agois. The anti-corruption
prosecutor investigated the case because of the declarations made by former
representatives of Montesinos, but the case was archived in 2004. Since then,
the process has been forgetten. In 2008, Agois presided over the NGO
Sociedad de Empresas Periodísticas (Society of Media Companies) (SEP),
which brought together “El Comercio”, “La República” and Epensa itself,
among other printed media organizations. * Three years later, he received an
official award from the president of Congress, Luis Zumaeta, member of the
then president Alan García’s party. In 2013, Agois Banchero was one of the
shareholders who participated in the controversial process of selling his
shares in Epensa to “El Comercio”, after the same operation failed with “La
República”. In November of the same year, a group of eight journalists
reported Agois, his mother, his brothers and “El Comercio” for violating
freedom of expression and information laws due to the aforementioned
commercial operation. The case is still with the Judicial Authorities. Agois is
currently a member of the Board of Directors at the Consejo de la Prensa

Diario El Comercio
“El Comercio” -controlled by the Miró Quesada and García Miro
families- is the most important newspaper in Perú and the most
prominent among all the newspapers that the group publishes.
In the presidential elections of 2006 and 2011, according to diverse

political analyses of the time, the newspaper “El Comercio” supported the candidates Alan García and Keiko
Fujimori, both right-wing, against the nationalist Ollanta Humala, who eventually won at the last hurdle. This
support was most evident in the 2011 campaign, when the Nobel Prize for Literature winner, Mario Vargas
Llosa, resigned as a newspaper columnist through a letter in which he said that “El Comercio” had become a
"propaganda machine for the candidacy of Keiko Fujimori”

withdrawing from the media. In 2008, she returned to the newspaper as
editor of the weekend edition, being well-known in her public affiliation with

That same year, Nobel prize in Literature winner Mario Vargas Llosa resigned

Correo was founded in 1962 by fishing businessman Luis Agois
Banchero. In 1974 it was confiscated by a left-wing military
dictatorship, which went so far as to halt circulation in the early 80s.
On November 21st 2000, after the fall of Alberto Fujimori’s
government, the newspaper was relaunched at a price of 50 cents
and established itself as an innovative formula of political
journalism in tabloid format. At that time the newspaper market was dominated by “El Comercio” and “La
República”. In the last 16 years Correo has had directors such as Juan Carlos Tafur (2000-2005), Aldo Mariátegui
Bosse (2005-2013) and Iván Slocovich, currently in office. It currently has 16 editions nationwide and is the
leader in readership in the country, to the point where it reached over 70% distribution to the country’s
provinces in 2012, according to the “Sociedad de Empresas Periodísticas del Perú (Peruvian Society of Media

Perú21, a political news tabloid, was founded in 2002 and has since
had three directors who are not journalists: economists Augusto

Garrido Koechlin, currently in office. In its 14-year existence, this
young media organization has had markedly different editorial lines.
It began as a progressive and innovative newspaper with Álvarez
Rodrich (although he was dismissed by decision of the shareholders
of “El Comercio”), it then became an extreme right newspaper with Du Bois and his controversial role in
supporting Keiko Fujimori in the 2011 presidential election against Ollanta Humala. In the last three years
Perú21 has focused its editorial line to position itself as a modern media organization (with the creation of the
post “Reader’s Ombudsman”), it is progressive in covering key issues and interested in digital audiences.

million, according to IABPerú. From its beginning until the end of
2006, under the direction of the journalist Juan Carlos Luján Zavala,
the website dedicated itself to reproducing the content of the printed format, but also to collecting local news
stories from a political impact, from international agencies or from other sources of credibile information.
Between 2007 and 2015, Luján was replaced by Fabricio Torres del Águila, a former sports journalist and
television reporter and producer at Frecuencia Latina (now Latina). In that period, the audience of
elcomercio.pe began to grow in number based on entertainment, sports and other stories originating from
social networks, leaving the serious content aside that had characterized this website in its early years. The
current manager of the website department of “El Comercio” is Carlos Salas, former editor of the sports section
of “El Comercio.”

Alberto Fujimori (imprisoned for human rights violations and corruption). She
was a member of the board of directors at “El Comercio” until early 2000. Her
cousin Alejandro Miró Quesada Cisneros, then director of the newspaper,
accused her of leading a minority sector of shareholders to pressure him to
step down during the fall of the Fujimori regime. This case reached the Inter-
American Press Association. After that Meier ended up withdrawing from the
media. In 2008, she returned to the newspaper as editor of the weekend
edition, being well-known in her public affiliation with Fujimori in the elections
between Keiko Fujimori and Ollanta Humala in 2011. That same year, Nobel
prize in Literature winner Mario Vargas Llosa resigned as columnist of the
newspaper through a letter in which he considered that Meier had turned the
newspaper into a "propaganda machine for the candidacy of Keiko Fujimori."
He remained in office for six years, until he was dismissed for the second time
in 2015 by decision of the current director Fernando Berckemeyer.

Founder Baruch Ivcher Bronstein
Affiliated Interests Founder Baruch Ivcher Bronstein

was a major broadcaster. He presided over the board of the then-channel
Frecuencia Latina in two periods and was the visible face of the medium for
several decades. He is an Israeli businessman who came to Peru in 1970 to
secure the Paraíso mattress factory that his brother had established in 1967,
and was quite successful. He became associated with Bernardo Batievsky and
the Winter brothers in order to establish channel 2. Because the law
prohibited any foreigner from owning a media organization and he had not
yet been nationalized, his initial participation went through the notary Luis
Vargas. He was married and was nationalized in Peru in 1984. Following the
release of several reports denouncing acts of corruption, Alberto Fujimori's
government withdrew his Peruvian nationality alleging flaws in the procedure.
With that, he lost control of the channel and was went into exile. His case was
filed with the Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos (Inter-
American Commission on Human Rights). Upon the fall of the dictatorship, he
recovered his nationality, regained control of the company and the state
made a payment of 20 million soles as compensation. He is a friend of former
President Alan García Pérez. In September of 2013, Ivcher sold his shares in
the channel to Enfoca, of Jesus Zamora.

Media Ownership
Who owns the media?
MOM-Peru researched the ten most important media groups and the thirteen individuals who are majority
shareholders of the companies which control the most important media. We investigated who they are, how
many media outlets they own, in what other sectors of the economy they operate and what their associated
interests are.
Of the 40 media researched, 39 belong to the some of the ten most economically important groups in the
country. The other, Willax Television, belongs to a corporation unrelated to the media. No independent media
feature in the Top 10 for its sector.
All the media monitored by MOM have a business name and belong to a company. None operates illegally.
It is evident from the analysis that there is a high concentration of ownership in the print sector, given that just
one publishing company owns eight of the ten most read newspapers. In the television sector, there is
audience concentration in the three most important channels: two of them have associated with one another
and the third associated with another free-to-air channel. Three groups control the Top 10 ranked radio media.
Finally, all ranked digital media support the largest radio, television or print media. There is multimedia
integration in all cases.
The dictatorship of Alberto Fujimori from 1990 to 2000 represented a watershed in the configuration of media
ownership in Peru. The capture of the editorial line of the television channels created difficulties: on several
occasions, there were changes of ownership, legal problems and some were sold. The purchase of América
Televisión by the El Comercio Group and the La República Group was one consequence. Some media were
weakened, while others began to strengthen.

Diverse owners, but basically no women
Eight of the ten media groups are families. Some of the principal shareholders of the media groups are related.
In almost all companies, a small number of principal shareholders stand out. The El Comercio Group is the only
exception. Its shares are distributed throughout the large Miro Quesada family. The largest shareholder
controls barely 4.6% of the company.
The media groups which are not family-owned include Latina Televisión (whose board president is Jesús
Zamora), the companies administered by Enfoca SAFI, Grupo ATV (of the Mexican magnate Remigio Ángel
González) and the multinational channel Alba Visión.

PERU
The principal media owners have diverse financial interests either directly or through close family members.
The Miro Quesada family has links with the country´s largest building company--which has state contracts--and
the main airline, among others. Latina Televisión´s Zamora administers investments in health, fishing and
airports, among others. Higinio Capuñay, of Corporación Universal, is invested in the entertainment and
cumbia dance industries. In addition, some owners have created offshore businesses registered in Panama,
whose activities are not known.
Although in many cases the political preferences of the proprietors are evident, none is affiliated with a political
party.
In regards to gender, the groups are male dominated. Only two women appear on the lists of the companies
researched: Raquel Delgado Parker, President of the Board of Group Panamericana de Radios, and Milagros
Miro Quesada, Vice-President of the Board of the El Comercio Group.
Unlike other countries, there is no single owner of any media. All are in association.

José Alejandro Graña Miró Quesada

Peruvian (1945). Member of the Miró Quesada family, which
controls El Comercio, the most important media group in Peru.
Currently, one of the most important shareholders. He is owner and
chairman of the country's largest construction company, Graña &
Montero (G&M), one of the seven Peruvian companies listed on the
New York Stock Exchange and ranked eighth on the list of major
groups in Peru, according to the publication "Peru: the top 10,000
companies 2015." The XXXV Power Survey of the “Semana
Economica (Economy Week)” magazine considered him as one of
the 30 most powerful people in Peru in 2015. Between 1999 and
2014, he was a member of the Board at the Empresa Editora El Comercio S.A., a position in which his daughter
eventually replaced him.
He is currently a member of the Board of Directors at the Banco de Crédito del Perú (Credit Bank of Peru).
Before that he held the same position at Telefónica del Perú, Refinería La Pampilla and Edegel. G&M and its
subsidiaries in 7 other Latin American countries have entered the licensing business in the road, rail, oil, gas
and electricity sectors. * Since the 1950s, G&M has been involved in the most emblematic real estate
developments in Peru: the city of Talara, Rebagliatti Hospital, airport Jorge Chávez, the Civic Centre, Larcomar,
Gutiérrez Roundabout, the Gran Teatro of Lima theatre, Sheraton, Marriot and Westin hotels, and mining
projects for Yanacocha, Cerro Verde, Antamina, Xstata Cooper and Las Bambas; gas projects such as Gas of
Camisea; infrastructure, such as the Interoceanic highway and the trains of Lima. * Although the owner of
Graña & Montero maintains a low profile -he has not held public office nor is known to be affiliated with any
political party- his company has been chosen during the last three Peruvian governments (Alejandro Toledo,
Alan García and Ollanta Humala) to take charge of the main megaprojects in construction; in some cases
associated with Odebrecht, the Brazilian transnational company involved in the biggest corruption scandal in
recent years: the Lavajato case. (More information here).

Corporación Universal S.A.C is a radio, print, television and online
media conglomerate with mass appeal, founded by Higinio Capuñay
and his son Eduardo Capuñay in 2001 to aggregate two radio
stations that they had previously acquired: Universal Radio, 1989,
Monsefú in Chiclayo in the north of the country, a station which
broadast popular northern music: pasillos, cumbias and boleros; La
Karibeña, 1994, music radio station. Using a franchise model, they
formed alliances with regional stations using the same name and
musical mix, but with local programming to attract the loyalty of the
public and advertisers. They began replicating this model by buying
radio stations in other cities. As cumbia music grew in popularity, they too began to grow. In 2006 they
launched Radio Exitosa in the north of the country, with a format of news and music. They began to diversify by
organizing musical events and to represent bands, firstly with the Cumbia Vip S.A.C and later with Aventura
Show S.A.C, thus gaining exclusive rights to releases by popular groups such as Corazón Serrano or Papillon.
They attained national reach with the purchase in 2009 of three stations in Lima: La Karibeña, Exitosa and La
Kalle. Five years later they entered the newspaper market with publications using the names of their radio
stations as titles. In 2015, Radio Karibeña had 65 subsidiaries nationwide; Radio Exitosa, 59; Radio La Kalle, 20
and Z Rock & Pop, 8. It had 15 stations in addition to the three newspapers. It intends to continue expanding.
Unlike other groups, in each city its transmits local information and caters to local musical tastes rather than
relying on uniform national programming. It claims that the La Karibeña newspaper sells 80 thousand copies
nationwide and Exitosa 44 thousand. During the 2016 electoral campaign the company made contributions of
7,500 soles to Alianza Popular and 2,340 soles Fuerza Popular. The group has faced allegations of failure to
respect the labor rights of its employees. Some are hired through another group company: Contenidos Perú
S.A.C. Other companies were established as vehicles for payment of employees.

Manages one of the country's seven free-to-view channels. Founded
in 1959 by the Genaro brothers; Hector and Manuel Delgado Parker,
sons of Genaro Delgado Brandt, a radio businessman from 1937. It
is currently managed by the Schütz Freundt family. They managed
to get the initial capital thanks to the partnership with Isaac Lindley,
owner of the Inca Kola soft-drink factory. He began broadcasting on
channel 13 in 1959 and in 1965 he switched to channel 5. He
produced several entertainment and news programs that won large
audiences. Around the company several companies were
established that supplied programming. In the 1970s, the military dictatorship confiscated 51% of the shares
and took control of the news content. Once democracy was re-established, the shares returned to the Delgado
Parker brothers in 1980. The shares were transferred to two companies that belonged to the Delgado Parker
brothers: Grupo Pantel and DelPark S.A., a media holding that brought together Panamericana Televisión S.A.,
RPP S.A. and Cadena Sur Inc, a television station for Peruvians in the USA. The Delgado family held an economic
dispute following the sale of Tele2000, the mobile phone company, to Bellsouth in 1997. Before the increase in
capital that was made that year in order to financially rescue the channel, Manuel Delgado Parker and Hector
Delgado Parker’s heirs asked Ernesto Schütz Landázuri (Manuel Delgado Parker’s father-in-law) for a loan. In
return, he took control of the channel. He later bought more shares and became a majority shareholder. From
then on, Genaro Delgado Parker began a series of trials in an attempt to regain control of the channel. Schütz
began restructuring the channel’s finances and put his editorial line at the service of Alberto Fujimori's
dictatorship. In 2001, videos came to light showing Schütz receiving money from Fujimori's adviser, Vladimiro
Montesinos, in exchange for supporting the regime. It was then that Schütz fled and left the channel in the
hands of his children Ernesto, Lorena and Katherine Schütz Freundt. Although videos of Genaro Delgado Parker
with Montesinos also came out, the founder of Panamericana managed to recover some control of the channel
in 2003. The Schütz children managed only half. The building was divided into two and broadcasts were sent
out from both administrations: Genaro Delgado Parker to Lima and the Schütz children to the provinces. A
judge ruled in Delgado Parker’s favor and administered the entire channel to him until 2009. During all those
years the channel accumulated a lot of debt. In 2009, Indecopi intervened to designate a Board of Creditors.
That same year, the Schütz Freundt family returned to take control of the channel and do so to this day, under
the condition of paying the agreed debts. The channel’s shareholders consist of three companies owned by the
Schütz Freundt family, which have limited social capital. It maintains 91 terrestrial stations throughout the
country. In November 2015, Panamericana Televisión and Latina announced a commercial agreement to jointly
sell advertising and exchange content. The advertising schedule is managed by Latina Media S.A.C., and
between January and September 2016 they have been jointly awarded US$6 million ($20.3 million soles) in
contracts with the State.

Grupo La República
Grupo La República is the second largest print and digital media
organization in the country. It owns three newspapers, a Sunday
supplement, the Peru edition in the newspaper “El País,” six news
websites, is on the board of directors at two television channels and
owns a foundation to train journalists. In other businesses, it owns
two online sales websites, an online payment site, a betting site, an
electronic money business and the printing press for La República. In 2003, it acquired 30% of the shares of
América Televisión (free-to-view) and Canal N (cable). Together with their partners in the “El Comercio” Group,
they created the company Plural TV S.A.C. in order to manage both channels. That year, the Mohme family
changed the name of "Cia Impresora peruana" -dedicated to the production of the newspapers- to Grupo La
República S.A. In 2007 another company was established called Grupo La República Publicaciones S.A.
The group is made up of several companies: Grupo La República Publicaciones, which is responsible for editing
the group's newspapers; Grupo La República Digital that supplies the group's websites; the Editorial
Septiembre, which is in charge of the books and collections edited by the Group; Grupo La República S.A. and
Plural TV S.A. They also own the Gustavo Mohme Llona Foundation.
Somo family members had recently entered into the electronic money business through GMovil S.A.C and
Gmoney S.A.
In 2010, the group acquired 30% of the shares in Teleamazonas de Ecuador and two years later they acquired
45%.
In early 2013, GLR attempted to buy Epensa, another newspaper business. However, the partners at Epensa
decided to sell their stake to Grupo El Comercio (GEC). Prior to that transaction, GLR had 16.39% market share
of newspaper sales in the market, Epensa had 28.56% and GEC 49.3%, according to figures from SEPP. After the
sale, GEC had 77.86% arket share. From there, GLR began a campaign questioning the "media concentration"
by GEC, and eight journalists filed a lawsuit in the case.
GLR is a company thet belongs to the Mohme Seminario family. The elder brother, Gustavo Mohme Seminario,
is the visible face of the companies and manages the majority of actions in them. The company distributes
disks, instalments and other collectibles alongside the newspapers.

GRUPO RPP
GRUPORPP is the most important radio conglomérate in Peru, made
up of two news stations and five músical stations. It has two TV
channels (a cable one and a broadcaster one), six web pages, and
businesses related to the marketing sector, BTL and indoor
advertising. The group was created on the foundations of Radio
Programas del Perú (RPP), producer of radio contents that, through
the years, bécame the main news station in the country. Founded in 1963 by Manuel Delgado Parker, it is a
family company that is now managed by his children Hugo, Manuel and Frida Delgado Nachtigall. In 1996, the
business group decided to open up to new journalistic options and launched www.rpp.com.pe, the first web
site of the radio. The following year, the internet live station was set up, and in 2000 it was relaunched as a
multimedia news site (rpp.pe). In 2005, RPP Noticias en televisión (news on television) started its broadcast,
through a morning segment in a cable channel. But it was on January 2011 that RPP TV went on air, and it is
broadcasted until today solely by Movistar TV (Channel 10).

One of the largest Radio conglomerates in the country. It owns 9
radio stations, 6 websites and is engaged in unconventional
advertising at public events that they organize. It originated in 1969
when Radiomar Plus was founded, a music station dedicated to
salsa. Shortly thereafter, Abraham Zavala Falcón, the company's
manager and DJ, became a majority shareholder. In 1998, Zavala
and his sons founded a new company called Radiomar
Producciones in order to group their new radios together. The following year they changed their name to
Corporación Radial del Perú. By that time they already had four other stations: Ritmo Romántica, Stereo 100,
Inca and Planeta. The company today is called CRP Medios y Entretenimiento S.A.C. and it also sell adverts on
the internet as well as advertising non-conventional BTL at the events and concerts they organize. They have
acquired new radio stations: Radio Moda (2000), La Inolvidable (2003), Nueva Q (2008) and Mágica (2010) The
group has entertainment as its main objective, and that is why they do not own any news stations. Over time,
the radio stations that belong to CRP are characterized by being oriented to a well defined music niche. It is the
RPP Group’s main competition. At present, Abraham Zavala Chocano manages the company.

The Comercio or Ecomedia –controlled by Miró Quesada y García
Miro- is the biggest media group and is located between the 170
most important companies, a list that is made by “Perú: The top
100.000 companies of 2015”. In 2015, revenues of this group and
the subsidiaries were higher than the total received by all the media
graphic system of Peru. The newspaper –created in the XIX century
by two migrants who arrived to Lima in the middle of the emancipatory wars- passed to the Miró Quesada
family in 1875, they survived one of its director’s murder in 1933 and the confiscation by the leftist military
dictatorship between 1974 and 1980.
The company which originated the Group was born with the name of Infobanco-Servicios Teleinformativos in
1991 and changed to Empresa Editora el Comercio S.A. However, its entrepreneurship power and influence on
the public opinion grew strong in the last decade, and at the same time, it entered into the TV market after the
purchase of Compañía Peruana de Radiodifusión (América Televisión o Canal 4). During the presidential
elections of 2006 and 2011, according to various political analysis, El Comercio supported candidate Alan García
and Keiko Fujimori, both from the right, against the nationalist candidate Ollanta Humala, who finally won the
round. That same year, Nobel prize in Literature winner Mario Vargas Llosa resigned as columnist of the
newspaper through a letter in which he considered that Meier had turned the newspaper into a "propaganda
machine for the candidacy of Keiko Fujimori." Two years later, in 2013, the group bought more than 50% of
shares from the company who published the printed newspapers of their competitors: Epensa. After the
operation was disclosed, a group of journalists denounced El Comercio for violating freedom of speech and
media pluralism by concentrating almost 80% of the effective circulation of newspapers. The process called
"concentration" is in the judiciary, but is expected to get the case to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights
(CIDH) based in Costa Rica.
After this claim, El Comercio group started a process of diversification in 2014, changing its company name
from Empresa Editora El Comercio S.A. to Vigenta Inversiones S.A. and they started a new business in education
and entertainment, in Chile and Colombia. That same year they announced their new corporate name, from El
Comercio Group to Ecomedia.

The ATV Group is a Peruvian conglomerate of television channels
whose leading company is Andina de Radiodifusión (ATV), a station
that is placed third in the nation (IBOPE). ATV is one of 63 TV
channels that forms part of the media network by affiliation with
Albavisión, owned by Mexican magnate Remigio Ángel González
González, with a presence in Central and South America. Since its
early years, it was characterized as a channel that favored local production; however, due to a domestic
economic crisis, it had to give way to foreign "prerecorded" shows (distributed by Ángel González, among
others).
During the 90s, ATV was administered by the Vera family (Julio Vera Gutiérrez, his son Julio Vera Abad and his
wife Graciela Abad Vásquez de Vera), which was linked to the government of Alberto Fujimori Fujimori. Its
proximity to the Fujimori regime was shown in a 1998 video (recorded secretly in the National Intelligence
Service) in which Julio Vera Abad appears to receive USD50,000 from former presidential adviser Vladimiro
Montesinos Torres, in return for directing the editorial line of the channel for the third reelection of Fujimori.
Following these scandals, the channel was declared insolvent and in 1998 a Board of creditors was formed - the
principal of which was González. * In 2003, the Board approved a restructuring plan for the channel to cancel
all of its obligations over an estimated ten-year period. After beginning the process in negative figures, in 2011
the assets of ATV amounted to S/ 322 million and the channel reached first place in the 2012 commercial
rating. In November of that year, Indecopi declared the conclusion of the regular insolvency proceedings and
the end of the channel’s Board of creditors, following the settlement of the insolvency claims. A new
administration took over the channel in 2013, with Marcello Cúneo as general manager, a position he would
hold for two years (the Argentine Gustavo Enrique Welsh took his place in June 2015). After a series of
resignations and revocations, new managers were appointed to the channel, among which were; the Argentine
Carlos Eduardo Lorefice Lynch, the Mexican Juan Carlos González Sáenz and the Costa Rican Fernando Guido
Contreras López, all of whom were trusted men of Ángel González.
In January 2016, the ATV Group and América Televisión announced a "strategic alliance for the production and
distribution of entertainment content for Peru and the region," which would allow the original productions of
América TV to be seen in the 15 affiliated countries of the Albavisión Network, and also that ATV or Red TV
request the Content Production Center of América TV to develop formats and fictions for Peruvian and
international markets.

Empresa Peruana de Servicios Editoriales S.A (Editora Perú) is a
state-owned Enterprise governed by the FONAFE Corporation’s own
private law, which enjoys economic, administrative and financial
autonomy. Its mission is to share and publish legal and official State
information and current affairs on both national and international
levels in a plural, objective and reliable way. It has three lines of
business: the official newspaper “El Peruano”, the Peruvian Andean
News Agency and the line of Editorial and Graphic Services (Segraf).
Instituto Nacional de Radio y Televisión del Perú (IRTP) is a public body affiliated with the Ministry of Culture
(formerly affiliated with the Presidency of the Council of Ministers), enjoys administrative, economic and
financial autonomy. It is responsible for meeting the needs of information, knowledge, culture, education and
entertainment in the population nationwide, through their communication platforms: TV Perú, TV Perú
Noticias, Canal IPe, Radio Nacional and Radio La Crónica.
The independence of the state channel has been questioned on more than one occasion due to previous
governments having used its signal for propaganda, particularly during the Fujimori era and Alan Garcia's
second term in office. Interrupting the channel’s regular programming to broadcast the activities of the head of
state live has been a frequent and questionable practice, especially when what is transmitted are public rallies
organized a few weeks before election day, which can be taken as an act advocating in favor of the political
party in power. During the outgoing government of Ollanta Humala, the presence of Nadine Heredia on TV
Perú’s official broadcasts was questioned (the channel even covered a birthday celebration of the former first
lady). It was speculated that the state channel was being used to support the presidential candidacy of Heredia,
which ultimately never happened.

Grupo La República
Grupo La República is the second largest print and digital media
organization in the country. It owns three newspapers, a Sunday
supplement, the Peru edition in the newspaper “El País,” six news
websites, is on the board of directors at two television channels and
owns a foundation to train journalists. In other businesses, it owns
two online sales websites, an online payment site, a betting site, an
electronic money business and the printing press for La República. In 2003, it acquired 30% of the shares of
América Televisión (free-to-view) and Canal N (cable). Together with their partners in the “El Comercio” Group,
they created the company Plural TV S.A.C. in order to manage both channels. That year, the Mohme family
changed the name of "Cia Impresora peruana" -dedicated to the production of the newspapers- to Grupo La
República S.A. In 2007 another company was established called Grupo La República Publicaciones S.A.
The group is made up of several companies: Grupo La República Publicaciones, which is responsible for editing
the group's newspapers; Grupo La República Digital that supplies the group's websites; the Editorial
Septiembre, which is in charge of the books and collections edited by the Group; Grupo La República S.A. and
Plural TV S.A. They also own the Gustavo Mohme Llona Foundation.
Somo family members had recently entered into the electronic money business through GMovil S.A.C and
Gmoney S.A.
In 2010, the group acquired 30% of the shares in Teleamazonas de Ecuador and two years later they acquired
45%.
In early 2013, GLR attempted to buy Epensa, another newspaper business. However, the partners at Epensa
decided to sell their stake to Grupo El Comercio (GEC). Prior to that transaction, GLR had 16.39% market share
of newspaper sales in the market, Epensa had 28.56% and GEC 49.3%, according to figures from SEPP. After the
sale, GEC had 77.86% arket share. From there, GLR began a campaign questioning the "media concentration"
by GEC, and eight journalists filed a lawsuit in the case.
GLR is a company thet belongs to the Mohme Seminario family. The elder brother, Gustavo Mohme Seminario,
is the visible face of the companies and manages the majority of actions in them. The company distributes

Context
Introduction to context
Peru has an ancient culture and is one of the world’s most biodiverse countries. It is heading towards the
bicentenary of its independence from Spain. Half of Peru’s republican history was spent under the yoke of
military dictatorships or authoritarian governments. It survived the War of the Pacific and the violence of the
Maoist organization Sendero Luminoso. Its longest period of democratically elected government began in
2000.
Although tainted with examples of state corruption, social conflict and inequality, the subsequent 16 years have
witnessed a bonanza almost without precedent in the country’s modern history. The main communications
media have strengthened economically, forming the multimedia groupings essential to a democratic future
and, given that they reach millions of Peruvians, decisive in the formation of pubic opinion.

The history of media in Peru

Peru will celebrate the bicentenary of its independence in 2021. During the last 50 years, three dark periods of
authoritarianism, violence and corruption have shaken the foundations of the media and affected its evolution
and ownership.
Between 1974 and 1980 the leftist military dictatorship nationalized it. Following the end of military rule, the
subversive organization Sendero Luminoso began a war against the state, with assassinations and bombings
against journalist and the media among its objectives. On top of this, at the end of the 90s, the authoritarian
government of Alberto Fujimori effectively bought the editorial support of the main television channels and
some newspapers with huge sums of money, altering the future of the country´s main media.
Aftering failing to buy all media that opposed its second re-election, the Fujimori government began a brutal
campaign to discredit that opposition, including stripping media owners of their nationality and property, as
well as intimidating the teams of journalists investigating the regime´s corruption and violations of human
rights.

Following Fujimori´s flight to Japan in 2000, the provisional government began a series of legal actions to bring
about the capture, trial and imprisonment of media proprietors who were seen in dozens of videos recorded
inside the National Intelligence Service (SIN) receiving money from the presidential adviser, Vladmiro
Montesinos. Some managed to escape the country.
Fifteen years after the restoration of democracy, three media groups had been consolidated as the largest
based on income: El Comercio (with América Televisión) and the ATV and Latina channels. Part of the legacy
from the SIN period remains to this day, particularly in the generation of controversial television content.

Peru´s culture is ancient. Some 5,000 years ago, whilst other civilizations were developing in China, Egypt and
Mesopotamia, it constructed its own to the north of Lima known as Caral. The Inca Empire flourished in the
southern part of Peru as late as the 15th and 16th centuries and extended over territories which are now part
of Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina. The Spanish Conquest began in 1532 and lasted until Peru's
independence in 1821.
Almost 200 years later, Peru, whose capital city is Lima, is the 19th largest country in the world by area (1.285 m
sq km), surpassed in the Americas only by Canada, the United States, Brazil, Argentina and Mexico. With 31
th
million people (projected to reach 40 million by 2015), it is the 9 largest country in the Americas by
population.
Some 76% live in urban areas. Almost 80% are Catholic. There are fractionally more men (50.1%) than women
(49.9%). Life expectancy is 74 years. Some 61% of the population have health coverage. Twenty one percent of
the population live below the poverty line and 6% are illiterate.
The electoral roll has almost 23 million eligible voters. Fifteen million people are economically active, according
to statistics from the National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (RENIEC) and the National Statistics and
Information Institute (INEI).
Lima has 8 million inhabitants. The jungle regions cover 60% of the country’s territory but only houses 14% of
the population. The most recent census (2007) established that there are 1,786 indigenous communities and 51
ethnic groups in the country.
Peru’s constitution recognizes Spanish, Quechua, Aymara and other indigenous languages.
Remnants of Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso), the subversive organization which declared war against the
state during the period 1980-2000, continue to cause disruption in part of the country and for some years have
been aligned with drug trafficking mafias. The region, known as VRAEM (the Valley of the Apurímac, Ene and
Mantaro Rivers), is associated with the Ayacucho, Cusco, Junin, Apurimac and Huancavelica regions and houses
2% of Peru´s population.

Politics
Authoritarianism, corruption and violence
Peru has spent half of its 195-year history as a republic under military governments that came to power
through coup d'etat. The country endured two of South America’s most disastrous events: the War of the
Pacific against Chile, with the subsequent invasion of Lima in the latter part of the 19th century; the age of
terrorism provoked initially by the subversive organizations Sendero Luminoso and MRTA, and subsequently
deepened through violent state repression, causing 69,000 deaths between 1980 and 2000.
Following the latter, Peru began its longest period of democracy since its independence from Spain,
accompanied by an economic bonanza. During this period, the former president, Alberto Fujimori, was
sentenced to 25 years in prison for human rights violations during his government and several lesser charges
related to corruption.
Historians, judges and journalists regard the Fujimori Government, which came to power by defeating the
author and future Nobel Prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa in 1990, as Peru’s most corrupt. In 1992, he staged a
self-coup with the support of Nicolás Hermoza, Army Commanding General and, in the shadows, the head of
the National Intelligence Service, Vladimiro Montesinos. All are currently in prison. During this period, Fujimori
was also responsible for the creation of the Grupo Colina, a death squad responsible for numerous extra-
judicial killings.
MEDIA

MONITOR
PERU
The Fujimori Government collapsed in 2000 following the “vladivideos” revelations, recordings of politicians,
business people, and media proprietors receiving money from Montesinos. This culminated in the one of the
country’s largest political demonstrations-la Marcha de los Cuatro Suyos (the Four Cardinal Points March).
Today, Peru has its fourth successive democratically elected government. However, Peru's historical political
parties are marginalized and power is instead held by individuals independent of traditional politics. These
include: Keiko Fujimori, a populist from the right, daughter of the former president and, according to public
opinion polls since 2009, one of personalities with the highest approval ratings; Ollanta Humala, a former
military officer and nationalist who became president in 2011; Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, a center-right economist
who won the 2016 election and will govern the country until its bicentenary in 2021.

Economy
Various institutions including the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) consider Peru to have
shone as one of the stars of the economy of Latin America in the last decade due to its rapid growth (an annual
average of 5.9%), low inflation and a significant reduction in poverty. The country entered a period of prosperity
not seen in the republican era since the Guano Era of the 19th century. This was due to a favorable world
environment, prudent macroeconomic policies and structural reforms in various sectors of the economy.
In a final touch, the institutions of the international economic system and the expert press talked about an
“economic miracle” or “economic boom” to refer to the Peruvian prosperity that the statistics showed.
Decades earlier, it was a very different story. Peru´s most recent economic crisis began in the 1980s during the
populist government of the then president Alan Garcia (1985-1990), and was characterized by hyperinflation,
bankruptcy, marginalization from the international community and the IMF, violence generated by Sendero
Luminoso, political corruption and an attempt by the government to nationalize banks, financiers and
insurance companies.
During the government of Alberto Fujimori (1990-2000) and in accordance with IMF recommendations, a
controversial packet of measures known as “Fujishock” was announced to control inflation. Following economic
adjustment, promulgation of the controversial 1993 Constitution drafted following the 1992 self-coup and the
extra-judicial executions by the government, the state´s functions were redefined and a “market social
economy” established.
A controversial privatization of state enterprises began, together with financial liberalization and the
elimination of any barriers to foreign investment, permitting the country to reinsert itself in the world financial
system. As a consequence, the economy grew during subsequent years, although this reduced to a minimum
union activity saw an increase in informal activities. Other events unrelated to the economy included growing
government authoritarianism, (Fujimori was re-elected in 1995), repression of political opposition and
unprecedented acts of corruption.
Following the fall of Fujimori in 2000, three democratic governments followed: the economist Alejandro Toledo,
the lawyer Alan Garcia and the former military officer, Ollanta Humala. Each maintained the same economic
policy in a context of high prices for raw materials, huge foreign investment and openness to all markets. Many
national economic groups grew at the same time, including the principal media operators. By 2014, Peru had
totaled 15 years of continuous growth, according to the National Institute of Statistics and Information (INEI).
Nevertheless, enormous income inequality and the fiscal burden were the hidden side of the economic boom
and remain the principal challenges today.
The main economic activities in Peru are: manufacturing (16.25% of GDP), mining and hydrocarbons (14-36%),
trade (10.18%), and agriculture and livestock (5.97%) (INEI).

Media Consumption
As was the case elsewhere in the world, the first mass media to reach the population of Vice-Royal Peru was
the newspaper. The pioneers, the Diario de Lima and Mercurio Peruano, to name the most important, date
back to the 17th century. Radio and television broadcasting began in Peru in the first half of the 20th century
(Radio Nacional del Perú, launched over the private station Lima OAX-AM) followed by the premier in 1958 of
the state Channel 7 and the first commercial channel, today known as América Televisión. Nearly 40 years later,
following the arrival of the Internet, digital versions of magazines and newspapers were created. One of the
earliest to be released online, was Caretas, in 1995.
Since then, media circulation figures have been a continuing concern for the media industry and the advertising
market. Some interesting information about the audience for the print media, radio, television and Internet
according to different information sources includes the following.
TV: A study commissioned by the Radio and Television Consultative Council (ConcorTv) of the Ministry of
Transport and Communications indicates that television has the highest level of consumption in the country,
reaching 100% in cities in the north east of the country. The same report indicates that the television is the
most common appliance in Peruvian homes after the stove.
Radio: A 2015 report by the market research company CPI indicates that radio reaches 91.3% of Peruvians. and
93.4% of people in urban areas.

Print: Estimates for print media, prepared by the Peruvian Association of Journalism Companies (SEPP),
indicate that more than 5 million people read newspapers belonging to the El Comercio, La Republica and
other publishing groups at local and national level.

Legal Framework
The legal framework

Under the Constitution, Peru´s supreme law, the state protects the fundamental right of the people to
liberties of information, opinion, expression, the dissemination of thought and the possibility of doing
so through media. It also indicates that the exercise of informing and presenting opinion also includes
founding media. Consequently, any action of censorship, the closure of a source of expression or the impeding
of its free circulation, is a crime.
The main text also protects ethnic and cultural plurality and defines monopoly and media market cornering
as illegal and prohibited practices that violate the aforementioned rights.
The prohibition against exclusivity, monopoly and cornering contained in the Constitution is further developed
in the Radio and Television Law (2004). This regulation--created after the co-option by the Fujimori regime of
the editorial policies of certain television channels-- establishes prior control over market domination
through limits to the number of radio and television licenses.
Specifically, the Radio and Television Law states that the radio electric spectrum is a scarce natural resource
that forms part of the wealth of the nation and that the Ministry of Transport and Communications is the entity
charged with assessing and processing requests to operate free-to-air radio and television stations and private
services, as well as designating stations and channels for this purpose. It also establishes that only Peruvian
nationals or companies created in the country can be holders of authorizations and licenses.
The Constitution, Peru´s supreme law, prohibits monopolies and cornering and says that the media must
cooperate with the state in the education and moral and cultural training of the country.
The Constitution also establishes that the media cooperate with the state in the education and moral and
cultural training of the country. The legal framework allowed a group of journalists to file a complaint before
the courts against El Comercio, the principal media group in the country, for violating the right to freedom of
information and opinion, by buying one of competing print media.
The Constitutional Tribunal, based on the American Convention on Human Rights and the Inter-American Court
of Human Rights, determined that freedom of information and expression derive from the dignity of the
person. This individual dimension prevents anyone from being prohibited from expressing their thoughts and
also guarantees the “rights of all people to receive any information for the purpose of forming their own
opinion”, and to “receive true and complete news” and “information of all kinds”.
Some judicial organs also recognize as a contribution, the Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Expression of the
Organization of American States. This states that: “The exercise of freedom of expression depends on

opinion...Specifically, the need for plural information is vitally important in a society´s decision-making
processes...Only when the individual is informed can he or she evaluate and freely adopt one position or
another across the political spectrum”.
Network neutrality
Network neutrality in Peru dates back to 2012, with the enactment of the Law on the Promotion of Broadband
and Construction of the National Dorsal Fiber Optic Network ("Broadband Law") issued by the Congress of the
Republic under Alan García’s government.
Article 6 of the law applies for the first time in our legislation the term "Net Neutrality" and prohibits operators
from “arbitrarily blocking, interfering, discriminating or restricting the right of any user to use an application or
protocol, regardless of its origin, destination, nature or ownership.”
In 2013, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC) approved the regulations of the Broadband
Law, which detailed the legal mandate and the scope of the network neutrality principle, as well as introducing
penalties for companies violating the provisions of the law.
Finally, in 2016 the Supervisory Agency for Private Investment in Telecommunications (OSIPTEL) approved the
Net Neutrality Regulation. This regulation gave effect to the legal mandate that the Executive had given the
regulator through the approval of the Broadband Law.
The Network Neutrality Regulation sets out the principles, permitted and prohibited activities measures, and
the regime of penalties and fines for network management practices that violate the principle. It sets the limits
that apply to Internet access service providers when designing and operating their services without preferential
treatment or arbitrary discrimination with respect to some type of content, protocol or application.
The following behavior by Internet providers is prohibited under the regulation as contrary to network
neutrality.

Internet, mobile phones and television: national
inequality
In Peru, a country with more than 31 million inhabitants, the population's access to communications
technology is unequal, be it computers, smartphones, or Internet with access to different instant messaging
applications, social media or video broadcasts. Urban areas, particularly Lima and some other coastal cities,
have the greatest access to these kinds of technologies.
At the national level, for example, 36% of households have access to a computer and 32.9% to fixed-line
Internet, according to the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI, as per its Spanish acronym).
These figures fall away in rural areas, where just 5.5% of households access a computer and 1.3% can access
the Internet.
The pattern is the same for access to cable television services provided by the main telecommunications
companies: Telefónica, Claro and DirecTv. In Lima 41.4% of households have access to programming from
overseas, whereas the figure in rural areas is only 9.9%.
However, inequality between urban and rural areas almost disappears when you verify Internet access through
a mobile phone. According to INEI, 82.6% of inhabitants in Metropolitan Lima access this service via mobile
phones, whilst this figure in rural areas is close to 71.2%.

Telecommunications market
Peru’s leading company in the telecommunications is Telefónica, best known for its Movistar brand. This
Spanish–owned company arrived in Peru in the 1990s during a time of major international expansion. Today it
has a significant presence in the national market, through its Internet services, cable television, and mobile line
and fixed telephone lines.
According to the state regulator OSIPTEL (the Supervisory Agency for Private Investment in
Telecommunications), Telefónica currently has a 38% share of the mobile telephony market. This company is
followed by América Móvil Perú (Claro), with 32%; Entel, (the Peruvian subsidiary of the eponymous Chilean
company), with 16.3%; and the Vietnamese company Bitel, one of the last operators to arrive in Peru (2014),
with 13.5% share of the total market.
These companies are also responsible for the national distribution and sale of different smartphone brands
including Apple (USA), Huawei (China), and Samsung (South Korea). No one single company dominates
smartphone market; for example, in 2017 the leading brand was Samsung (22% of the total), following by
Huawei (21%), and Apple (13.6%).
These figures show there to be almost no market concentration for mobile telephone equipment. This is not
the case for the fixed-line and cable television markets, where, according to OSIPTEL’s statistics, Movistar has a
clear domination, with a 74.5% and 51.6% market share respectively.

Technology giants and net neutrality

In addition to these big telecommunication companies in Peru, some of the world’s largest technology
companies, such as Google and Microsoft, have offices in Peru. Facebook and Amazon only have subsidiaries in
Latin America. The first operates in Lima through a headquarters dedicated to the sale of products and services
over the Internet, as well as technical and professional advice on the Internet, and the sale of advertising. The
second one is focused on marketing technology products.
In recent years, telecommunication companies have established a close business relationship with these
technology and social networking giants through so-called Zero rating, a much criticized commercial practice
used by operators such as Telefónica, Claro, Entel or Bitel to offer free or discounted Internet content for
applications such as Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and YouTube.
Zero rating has been questioned in the United States and in Europe because it violates net neutrality. It allows
preferential treatment for companies such as Facebook and Google at the expense of emerging innovation
companies, ultimately affecting the citizen's freedom of information. It also limits Internet access to only a small
number of options, threatening the right to browse freely.
Zero rating became popular in Peru in 2014 with the arrival of Bitel. This company was one of the first to offer
as part of its Internet data packages free and unlimited access to Whataspp, the world's leading messaging
application. Subsequently, Telefónica, Claro, and Entel also began to include free navigation access to other
popular applications as part of their packages.

Up to 10 applications with zero rating are currently offered, from the popular Facebook, Twitter, Instagram

In 2015, a debate began the arrival in Peru of Facebook’s application free basics to Peru, an initiative that allows
access to a limited number of restricted web pages free of charge. This business, also known as Internet.org,
was questioned by civil society groups for violating the principle of net neutrality. To date, only users of Entel,
Bitel and Claro can access the service.

Explanation
Media Audience Concentration

There are few sources to measure audience shares -the number of people who purchase a type of media- in
Peru. In addition, such measurements have limitations.
There are two fundamental problems: 1) in several measurements not all types of media are measured, but
MEDIA
OWNERSHIP
MONITOR
PERU
only those who are clients of the company carrying out the measurement; and 2) the public is not calculated at
100%, but only those who purchase the types of media that the ranking measures.
This indicator attempts to evaluate the concentration of the audience and readership -when the audience
purchases only a few types of media- along the various platforms, based on audience share. This concentration
is measured by adding the participation of the four biggest companies by sector, as this is the most common
way to do so in economic calculations.
In order to establish indicators it is considered that concentration is low if the sum of the audience of all types
of media of the groups in the Top 4 have an audience share below 25%; medium if it is between 25% and 49%;
and high if greater than 50%.
Television
To measure this concentration on television we use Kantar Ibope's 2015 measurement of average number of
viewers per hour. They calculate the audience of six open television channels whose clients are: América
Televisión, Latina, Panamericana, ATV, ATV+ and Red TV. In addition, they measure the total number of cable
users.
Schedule Average number of viewers (thousands) Average Rating

(06:00 – 23:59)
América Televisión 486.5 3.9
Latina 346.7 2.8
ATV 229.5 1.8
Panamericana 71.3 0.6
Red TV 53.5 0.4
ATV+ 18.0 0.1
Total cable 655.2 5.2
VHS / DVD / VJ 132.8 1.1
Otros / Locales / UHF / NI 123.5 1.0
Total TV 2,117.0 16.8
As the measurement does not include 100% of the actual public, it is not possible to use the standardized
methodology that MOM is following in all the countries in which it is being implemented. But to have an
approximation it is possible to make some calculations.
If we add the audience share of the 4 biggest channels, América Televisión (486,500), Latina (346,700), ATV

PERU
(229,500) and Panamericana (71,300) it gives an average of 1,134,000 viewers per hour. This represents 53% of
the public that Kantar Ibope measures on television. If only the first three channels are considered, they
already reach 50% of the audience.
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when the audience share of the 4 principal companies is above 50%.
Radio
As regards radio, the average of the two national surveys made by the Compañía Peruana de estudios de
mercado y opinión (Peruvian Company of Market and Opinion Studies) (CPI) in 2015 has been used to
determine listening preferences on a weekly basis. The 17 stations (100%) that appear on this list belong to
only four media groups.

The four groups hold 100% of the audience share that CPI measures.
Although it is not possible to apply the MOM standardized methodology because the audience of the rest of
the radio stations in the market is unknown (100% real), it is not ruled out that the concentration in the Top 4 is
very high.
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when the audience share of the 4 principal companies is above 50%.
Newspapers
There is no recent data. In order to select the 10 Peruvian newspapers, the 2013 and 2014 data from the
Sociedad de Empresas Periodísticas del Perú (Society of Journalistic Companies in Peru) was used. According to
this data, there was information on only nine types of media with national coverage. It was decided to
incorporate Exitosa, a Corporación Universal newspaper, as tenth due to it having national coverage and
relevance for the formation of public opinion.
According to this data, the Grupo El Comercio newspapers control 80% effective circulation of newspapers and
78% readership in the market, a figure that was reached after the purchase of Epensa, a company that edited
the newspapers Correo, El Bocón, Ojo and Ajá.
After that purchase, newspaper circulation numbers have not been openly spread.
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when the readership of the 4 principal companies is above 50%. In this case, one single
group far exceeds that figure.
Internet
The average number of monthly visits to Peruvian websites in 2015 is 109,952,846, according to the Interactive
Advertising Bureau (IAB). The limitation is that they only their clients’ websites are measured. This ranking does
not include, for example, institutional state websites or social networks. Almost all Peruvian digital media is
considered.
Although the standardized MOM methodology cannot be applied, some approximations can be made. If only
MEDIA

the first twenty types of media of the IAB's annual ranking are added, we can see that Grupo El Comercio (72.3
million), Grupo RPP (16.4 million), Grupo La República (11.7 million) and Latina (3.4 million) represent 92.93%
visits to national websites that are registered on the IAB.
The digital media of Grupo El Comercio alone represents 65% Internet audience as measured by the IAB.
Risk: High
Risk is considered high when the readership of the 4 principal companies is above 50%. In this case, one single
group far exceeds that figure.
Media Market Concentration

In order to calculate whether the company has market concentration, the market shares -one type of media’s
percentage of the total revenue in the sector- of the four biggest groups must be added together. The problem
is that in Peru this information has not been established: neither the amount of total media revenue, nor the
total amount of investment in advertising, nor the profits of media companies and all their subsidiaries.
This indicator attempts to assess the horizontal concentration in the media market. This concentration is
measured using the Top4 concentration measure.
In order to establish indicators, concentration is considered low if the sum of the audience of all types of media
of the groups in the 4 principal companies have an audience share below 25%; medium if it is between 25%
and 49%; and high if greater than 50%.

To the question: Are these powers that impose sanctions or enforce the law used effectively?
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when the authority never uses its power to impose sanctions. In Peru, no cross-
ownership hoarding has ever been sanctioned.
Cross-media Ownership Concentration

It is difficult to calculate the impacts of cross-ownership concentration. Measurement of audience share is
different and difficult to compare (some are by surveys, others by average sales, by sample and by devices).
Nor is there an open database on the market share of private and public advertising that the media have which
would allow the calculation of their economic impact.
This indicator aims to assess the concentration of ownership in the different sectors: television, newspapers,
radio and any other relevant type of media in the media industry (cross-media). The concentration is measured
using the Top8 concentration measure.
Risk: High
Why?
In the absence of data to accurately calculate the concentration of cross-ownership of the media, it is
considered high risk.
But qualitative research shows that the only group that enjoys a large participation in various sectors
(television, press, internet) is El Comercio. Other groups that have diversified such as GrupoRPP, Corporación
Universal, El Estado Peruano and Grupo La República, enjoy low participation in the other sectors.
This indicator measures the possible risk that there is in the market, not the current situation.

Regulatory Safeguards: Cross-media Ownership Concentration

There are no laws regulating the concentration of cross-ownership in the media. During the debate on the
acquisition of Epensa by Grupo El Comercio, this was one of the topics for discussion. Yet since that date, the
situation remains the same.
This indicator aims to assess the existence and effective application of regulatory safeguards (sector specific
and/or competition law) against a high concentration of cross-ownership among different types of media
(press, TV, radio, internet). Given the diversity of thresholds or limits that exist between different countries with
respect to ownership and/or control, the 'high' measure should be assessed according to the standards of the
country and in light of the thresholds or limits imposed by national laws.

Ownership Transparency
There is no specific law that requires media companies to publish the names of their shareholders. Yet there is
a law that requires companies to register their constitution and their initial shareholders in the
Superintendencia Nacional de Registros Públicos (National Superintendence of Public Records) (Sunarp).
In order to carry out this search it is not enough to have the name of the type of media, but its official business
name. There all documents of formation, increase in capital, changes of agents and other legal acts that a
company has registered can be reviewed; previous payment is necessary for each document that is reviewed.
Investigating each company has a high cost that few media companies are willing to pay.
The companies listed on the stock exchange, such as Grupo El Comercio, publish their corporate information
on the Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores (Superintendence of the Securities Market) website.
The political affiliation of the owners of the media companies can be reviewed in the Registro de
Organizaciones Políticas (Registry of Political Organizations) and the contributions to the electoral campaigns
that are published by the Oficina Nacional de Procesos Electorales (National Office of Electoral Processes),
which are open to the public.
This indicator aims to assess the transparency of data about media company owners’ political affiliations. The
transparency of the company is considered a fundamental requirement to enforce media pluralism.
To the question: How could the transparency and accessibility of data in relation to media ownership be assessed?
Risk: Medium
Why?
Risk is considered medium when data is presented from media company owners and their political affiliations
based on inquiries from journalists and media activists or upon request. In this case, the information is open to
the public but it carries a cost and it does not always lead to the true owners.

Regulatory Safeguards: Ownership Transparency

All formal companies are required, at least, to register their formation and initial shareholders in the National
Superintendence of Public Registries (Sunarp). This information is open to the public, for a fee.
One problem is that when there are changes in the shareholders, it is not necessary to register such changes
with Sunarp. Only the current shareholder relationship is known when the company registers a new legal act
(change of directors, managers, increase in capital, etc.), since it must be accompanied by a copy of the minutes
in the last shareholders meeting.
However, there is a second problem: the names listed as shareholders may be legal representatives, mutual
funds, offshores or ghost companies, which makes transparency difficult.
The third drawback is that it is not possible to search and verify whether a media company owner is a
shareholder in other businesses. The Sunarp system only allows information to be obtained if that person is
registered in a managerial position in other companies.

Risk: Medium
Why?
Risk is considered medium when some owners are still unknown.
When requesting a frequency or participating in a tender for radio or television, legal entities must submit a
copy of the company's constitution and bylaws, and the purpose of the company or association must be clear:
the provision of broadcasting services. The documents include information about legal representatives, boards
of directors, partners and/or shareholders.
When authorizations are transferred (licenses to issue), because the company or association which is the
proprietor is transferred, authorization must be sought from the Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones
(Ministry of Transport and Communications) and the same documentation must be submitted to the
purchasers (legal entities).
When there is a transfer of shares or the legal representative is changed, transactions must also be reported to
the MTC.
However, this information is not made public.
This does not apply in the case of printed or digital media. They only present their information to the
Superintendencia de Registros Públicos (Superintendence of Public Records) when they want to change
managers, increase capital or when they carry out any other legal act. Furthermore, not all types of media
declare the name of the company behind the publication, which makes transparency difficult.
(Political) Control Over Media Outlets and Distribution Networks

In Peru political party institutions are quite low. Groups are created and disbanded every five years for the sole
purpose of participating in an election. Many candidates participate without being affiliated, or are affiliated for
a short time, to a political party.
Although in many cases the political affiliation of media entrepreneurs is known, none of those being
investigated is affiliated with any party. This can be verified when reviewing the Registro de Organizaciones
Políticas (Registry of Political Organizations) (ROP), which is open to the public on the Internet.
It has been observed that Higinio Capuñay, owner of Corporación Universal, has had a direct interest in the
political party of the mayor of Lima, Luis Castañeda, whose daughter was a congresswoman for Solidaridad
Nacional (National Solidarity) (SN); the manager of the company, Omar Castro, was a candidate for Congress
for SN and supported the recall process of former mayor Susana Villarán, Castañeda’s political rival.
Other media companies have supported political campaigns, but the owners have not been affiliated.
Panamericana Televisión, owned by Ernesto Schutz Freundt, was the showcase of manipulation where an
audiotape was tampered with and then broadcast, which benefitted the candidate Keiko Fujimori. In 2011, El
Comercio and América Televisión, owned by the Miro Quesada family, supported Keiko Fujimori, and Grupo La

República supported Ollanta Humala.

As regards religious affiliations, the case that stands out is that of RPP. The archbishop of the Catholic Church in
Lima, Juan Luis Cipriani, has a weekly program in which he gives his political, religious and social views.
One of the most important political variables in media companies is their relationship with the Fujimori regime,
the major parliamentary force in the country: rejection, acceptance or neutrality.
As for distribution networks, there are no political affiliations on television or radio. Yet in written press, there is
one case. Carlos Aguilar Susaya, leader of the Federación Nacional de Vendedores de Diarios y Revistas
(National Federation of Newspaper and Magazine Vendors) has been a candidate for Congress for both APRA
(2006) and Fuerza Popular (Popular Force) (2011).
This indicator assesses the risk of political affiliations and control of the media and distribution networks. The
level of discrimination by distribution networks that have a political affiliation is also assessed.
To the question: What is the audience share in television whose owners are institutions with political affiliations?
Risk: Low
Why?
Risk is considered low when media companies with less than 30% audience share are owned by a particular
political party, candidate, political group or someone with a political affiliation. In Peru, the owners who are
being investigated are not registered with any party, even if they have clear sympathies.

(Political) Control Over Media Funding

State advertising has long been the subject of controversy. Spending is not centralized, but each public entity
can contract media companies directly. Therefore, it is always in the public interest to know the contracts of
each public entity, and the media companies that are favorable, and those that are adverse, to each public
entity. Small yet influential media companies are also contracted, where the money can be the difference
between the survival and the dissolution of the company.
The law that regulates state advertising (28874) requires public institutions to justify expenditure by presenting
a media plan, a description of the campaign to be promoted, and a technical justification for the selection of
media companies according to the target audience desired to be reached. However, there are no defined
parameters to present the justification, for example, audience share. Regulations are stricter in the case of
election campaigns. There have been cases where media companies that supported a successful candidate are
awarded contracts for larger amounts than others with larger audiences.
In addition, most media contracts are exempt from going through a selection process, as opposed to state
contracts, which does.
The contracts are public, as they appear on the Organismo Supervisor de Contrataciones del Estado
(Supervisory Agency of State Contracts) website. However, the change in this system makes it impossible to see
the annual turnover of each company that has contracts with the state. The amounts of each contract must be
calculated manually. This limits transparency.
This indicator assesses the influence of the state as regards the operation of the media market, focusing in
particular on the risk of discrimination in the distribution of state advertising. Discrimination can be reflected in
favoritism towards political parties or affiliation to political parties in office or in the criminalization in the
media that criticizes the government.
To the question: Is state advertising distributed to media companies in a way that is proportional to their
respective audience shares?
Risk: No data
Why?
In this case, there is not enough data for two reasons:
1) The new publication system of the Organismo de Contrataciones del Estado (Agency of State Contracts)
cannot see the annual turnover of each media company. This would allow us to know whether the total
distribution of state advertising is done according to audience shares.
2) There are no specific rules that set parameters for the distribution of state advertising.
3) Local media do not have an adequate measurement of their audience share. Distribution may be
discretionary.
Although in Lima it is observed that state advertising has acceptable levels of proportionality, in other regions
of the country this is much more debatable.
To the question: How could the distribution rules of state advertising be assessed?
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when there are no rules regarding the distribution of state advertising to the mass
media. And in Peru there are no strict rules on this subject.

(Political) Control Over News Agencies

In Peru there is only one news agency with national coverage: Agencia Andina, established in 1981. It is entirely
state-owned, through the Empresa Peruana de Servicios Editoriales S.A. (Peruvian Company of Editorial
Services), which in turn belongs to Corporación Fonafe (Fondo Nacional de Financiamiento de la Actividad
Empresarial del Estado (National Fund of Financing State Business Activities)).
Its current journalistic reports have been fused with the official newspaper El Peruano, also state-owned. The
appointment of the company’s chairman of the board of directors comes from a proposal from the Presidencia
del Consejo de Ministros (Presidency of the Council of Ministers).
This indicator attempts to assess the rank and independence of competing news agencies, including assessing
the level of state ownership and the level of independence of state-owned news agencies.
To the question: What is the main news agency’s market share?
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when an agency controls more than 50% of the market. In this case, Agencia Andina is
the only Peruvian agency in the market.
To the question: How could the political affiliation or dependence of the largest news agency be assessed?
Risk: High
Why?
Risk is considered high when most agencies belong to a group that has a political affiliation. In this case,
Andean Agency is state-owned.
Regulatory Safeguards: Net Neutrality

communication method they use.

What is the relationship between network neutrality and the media? An open Internet that well regulated by
the state and subject to network neutrality, facilitates, guarantees, and promotes media diversity and open
competition. By protecting this principle, we also safeguard freedom of speech, freedom of information,
plurality, media diversity, and the right of every citizen to have unimpeded access to any information through
the Internet.
This indicator aims to diagnose network neutrality rules and of the specific regulations the state has
established, noting that they have only been in force since 2017.
After analysis of the legislation, we rate the risk for this indicator as Medium.
Why?
Network neutrality in Peru is a legal obligation recognized and supported by the law and its regulations. In
2016, during Humala administration, the Supervisory Agency of Private Investment in Telecommunications
(OSIPTEL) issued a regulation in which it included network neutrality obligations. The rules define permitted
activities, prohibited activities, and a regime of penalties and fines which reach as high as US$450 thousand
(PEN1.4 million).
The current network neutrality regulations set the limits that apply Internet access service providers (e.g.,
Telefónica, Claro, Bitel, Entel) when designing and operating their services without preferential treatment or
arbitrary discrimination with respect to some type of content, protocol or application.
OSIPTEL is the entity responsible for compliance with Peru’s regulations. Since 2017 it has only investigated two
cases under the 2016 regulation: each related to the Mexican-owned Claro telecommunication company. Our
analysis shows that OSIPTEL is yet to investigate any instances of a telecommunications company blocking or
degrading certain Internet services.
OSIPTEL’s supervision of compliance by operators with network neutrality is limited, for example, to requiring
them to document their network management measures and publish this information on their websites.
Although the companies have failed to comply with this requirement, or done so using outdated information,
OSIPTEL has issued no fines.
Although user’s have the right to make complaints to OSIPTEL, the concept of network neutrality is not widely
understood in Peru.

Hard way to transparency

Generally speaking, obtaining the information necessary for this project was not easy. There is no state
organization or a private entity which gathers media company and business data, as occurs in Colombia
through the Bogota Chamber of Commerce.
The most straightforward case was that of the El Comercio Group because its parent company, the Empresa
Editora El Comercio S.A., is listed on the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL). Any company listed on the BVL must
present a series of documents, such as the Annual Report of the latest financial activities, the company´s
financial information, the relationships between shareholders, the current board, the relationship between
companies linked to the group, among others. It is the only group investigated which is listed on the stock
exchange.
In other cases it was necessary to visit the National Superintendency of Public Registries (SUNARP), the state
entity whose job it is to register people and associations, properties, vehicles, land, boats, aircraft etc. Each
company has a SUNARP certificate where its founding is recorded, as well as its initial capital, changes in the
board and in management and the issuing and revoking of powers etc. However changes in shareholding are
not recorded and to determine this, it is necessary to follow a tiring, long and costly process. First, it is
necessary to pay five soles to view on-screen a registered certificate (which can have between 10 and 100
pages) for up to 30 minutes. If the title of interest is found, it is necessary to lodge a request to read it, which
costs five soles and a one-hour wait. If the document has the required information (the last shareholders
meeting for example) a copy can be obtained, which costs three soles per page, plus another hour´s wait.
Obtaining information from SUNARP is feasible without wasting time, provided that one has the financial
resources and the right knowledge to follow all the steps. The average citizen would not embark on this
process unless there were a need to. During the fieldwork, it was evident that there were insufficient SUNARP
guides to meet the demands of visitors, making access to information more difficult, especially for older
people.
We have been able to identify the individual owners of almost all the groups and of the media, with the
exception of Latina, whose principal owner is Enfoca Asset Management Ltd, a company registered in the
Cayman Islands. Although we were unable to identify all its shareholders, we did discover who controls the
company.
To find out if a given business person is or has been a member of a political party or grouping, we resorted to
the Observatorio Para la Gobernabilidad (the Governance Watchdog) (Infogob) of the Jurado Nacional de
Elecciones (the National Jury of Elections). Using this portal, it is possible to locate the full name of the person in

The main transparency problem was finding financial information about the media. The first source was the
book Peru: The 10,000 Companies 2016, which identifies total income and net profits of the parent companies of
the most important media groups (updated to 2014). Data about advertising income and market share is
almost always absent. Other sources included files from Indecopi (in the case of Red TV, which has a
creditor´s board), journalism articles about the issue and interviews with business people or with media

Media Regulation
Oportunities and lacks in Media regulation
The Peruvian state recognizes and protects freedom of information, expression and opinion and the right to
do so, through diverse media. At the same time, the Constitution recognizes and protects ethnic and
cultural plurality and defines, as illegal and prohibited practices against freedom of expression and
information, media exclusivity, monopoly and concerning.
The text of the Constitution referring to exclusivity, monopoly and cornering is developed in the Radio and
Television Law (2004), in which an ex ante control is established that limits the number of radio and
television licenses that an operator can hold by band and locality.
However, there is no general anti-monopoly law or specific regulation which covers the print and other
media. Nor is cross-ownership prohibited. Nor are owners of radio and television obliged, beyond the
normal laws applying to business associations, to make public their market share or their advertising
income, nor their shareholder composition. The definition of cornering in the case of radio and television is
not based on market share (audience and/or publicity) of the operating companies.
We therefore consider that that in the case of implementation of television policies and regulations, there is
room for political discretion by the responsible authority, the Ministry of Transport and Communications,
given that the designation of ministers and high-level officials depend on the Executive, which does not
confer political autonomy on the regulator. The Radio and Television Consultative Council exists, but its
opinions are not binding.
We find that the approach with underlies the legal framework and policy implementation in the media
sector is one of non-intervention in issues of censorship, but is not one of promotion of the exercise of
rights by people or collectives which do not have the resources or the ability to own and manage media
such as radio and television, for example associations with promote education and community media.
Since the conception and implementation of the Radio and Television Law in 2005, decisions have been
taken by the Congress and the Executive which have not favored radio and television pluralism and
diversity. For example, prior to the current law, the limit for radio and television licenses was by band and
locality (Telecommunications Law 1993). The preferential treatment for intended under the Radio and
Television Law for the educational and community stations in particular, has not been vigorously applied
and promoted given that price is the most important criterion in license tenders. This has marginalized
community media in terms of their location and signal strength. No mechanisms have been established to
assist indigenous communities, campesinos and other collectives in vulnerable situations. Instead of
widening media diversity and plurality, the implementation of digital television has strengthened the Lima
business groups at national level.
Two opportunities for state action are not well exploited to increase media diversity and plurality. The

OSIPTEL and the regulation of Network Neutrality

In a digital age where consumption of news through the Internet is massive, network neutrality plays a key
role in ensuring the plurality of digital media outlets and the rights of freedom of information and of
speech. That consumers currently receive all kinds of information free of controls or censorship and can
access any website or content on the Internet represents the most contemporary and daily demonstration
of these rights in action.
Those who defend network neutrality believe that this principle is the best guarantee that a long distance
telephony company will, despite countervailing financial or corporate incentives, refrain from blocking or
downgrading a competitor’s service or from restricting certain content; for example, Telefonica—Peru’s
largest communications company—choosing to block Skype, Whatsapp, or similar applications, or to limit
access to content on a digital newspaper website that reveals information it finds uncomfortable.
In the absence of clear network neutrality rules, a telecommunication company could consider that such
behaviors—or others that affect freedom of information—constitute legitimate business practice. To protect
democracy and preclude this kind of scenario, in December 2016 the Peruvian state—through the
Supervisory Agency for Private Investment in Telecommunications (OSIPTEL)—approved the Network
Neutrality Regulation.
This regulation—which develops the provisions of the 2012 Broadband Law and its regulations
—establishes the principles of the law, the permitted and prohibited activities, and the regime of
infringements and fines in cases of the law’s contravention. These fines can reach as high as US$450
thousand (PEN1.4 million). The regulation governs the operations of telecommunications providers so as to
avoid any breach of the net neutrality principle. Although the law exists, implementation of the regulations
is far from perfect.
For example, the regulations establish express exemptions to the ban on blocking and the ban on targeted
degradation beyond the reasonable and allowed measures of network management that are normally
permitted. It authorizes the “filtering” and blocking of services and / or applications “at the request of the
subscriber” and “in compliance with contractual obligations with the state or because of a specific
regulation”, including court orders. Although these exceptions are yet to be interpreted or
implemented—but could be in accordance with the principle of network neutrality—they open the door to
other possible undue state restrictions.
Although the Broadband Law principle prohibits operators from discriminating arbitrarily, the 2016 Network
MEDIA
OWNERSHIP
MONITOR
PERU
Neutrality Regulation does not include any specific measure, regulation, or prohibition on zero rating, which
is the commercial practice of offering certain Internet content free of charge or at low cost. The regulations
only consider commercial differentiation to be arbitrary when the action of the operating company restricts
access; prioritizes or limits quality or functionality; or requires an additional fee for certain content or
services. They also state that if a commercial offer contains non-arbitrary commercial treatment (such as the
zero rating), the user has the power at any time to choose whether to accept this benefit without paying any
additional fee.
Whilst agreements between Internet providers and technology companies currently aim to benefit the user,
in the medium term they could come favor to certain media outlets and generate financial disincentives for
citizens to access independent media outlets or media that have not negotiated special rates with the
operators. Such a scenario would affect the right of every citizen to obtain unrestricted information.
During debate over implementation of the current regulation, OSIPTEL itself acknowledged that measures
which affect network neutrality, in the form of differentiated commercial offers (promotional and / or
established) paid as advertising by the telecommunications companies and distributed through the media,
may contravene this principle.
At the time the regulator claimed there was a potential gap in the zero rating regulation: “These measures,
at the choice of the operator (Telefónica, Claro, Entel Bitel), lead to a differentiated treatment (positive
discrimination) for certain resources that the Internet offers (traffic, protocol, service, or application) and are
likely to alter or limit the users’ free choice [being] contrary to network neutrality.”
Despite this, OSIPTEL’s ability to safeguard network neutrality is limited. According to its official information,
two audit findings against telecommunication companies for violating the principle exist, but no penalties
have been imposed.
In the framework of OSIPTEL’s transparency and audit activity, operators must publish their network
management actions on their web portals in accordance with the Network Neutrality Regulation. However,
the companies either disseminate outdated information, or do not comply with the requirements.
This practice has not been punished by the regulatory body despite it carrying fines of up to US$70,000 (PEN
210,000). Whilst any user could report a network management practice that falls outside OSIPTEL’s
regulations, there are as yet no reported cases as the framework is new and the requirements complex.
Despite Peru’s regulations being in force now for two years, it is clear that there are still many gaps that
OSIPTEL needs to close and steps it needs to take.

Concentration
Media concentration
Like never before, the world is experiencing a process of concentration of wealth in a few hands, of
concentration and mergers of the property of transnational corporations and of giant tracts of land being
controlled by a few corporations. Journalism, academia and different civil society organizations, have warned
about the dangers and risks for the citizenry that the phenomenon of economic concentration implies.
The global media industry is not exempt from this process and nor are national media markets. Over the last
three months, the German chapter of Reporters Without Borders and Ojo-Publico.com have built a database
known as the Media Ownership Monitor (MOM) to discover the economic weight and the audience of the most
important media groups in Peru, in the same way project has done so in other countries of the Americas,
Europe and Asia.
The following is what we discovered:
The power of "El Comercio"

In Peru there is one group which strongly dominates both circulation and readership through nine
newspapers at local and national level, Internet traffic through 13 digital media and a large audience share
through its free-to-air channel. It also concentrates private advertising and the national industry´s total
financial income. Founded in Lima in the 19th century as a small news bulletin, it has today become an
unrivaled media giant: the El Comercio Group.
In terms of financial concentration, the following conclusions have been drawn:
Estimates based on reports of the Securities Market Inspectorate (SMV) for 2016 and the book: Peru The Top
10,000 Companies 2015 indicate that nine media groups (including state media) received an average of 2.5
billion soles (US$ 757 million). Of this total, El Comercio and its subsidiaries received more than 1.4 billion soles
(US$ 411 million), or almost 60%.
The remaining 1.1 billion soles (US$ 323 million) were shared amongst the other important media groups: ATV
and Latina, as well as the state group (Instituto de Radio y Televisión del Perú and Empresa Peruana de
Servicios Editoriales), RPP, La República, CRP Medios, Panamericana Televisión and Corporación Universal.

Printed and digital media: circulation and readership

According to data from the Association of Peruvian Journalism Companies (SEPP), between 2013 and 2014 El
Comercio concentrated 80% of newspaper circulation and 78% of the readership in a market which three years
earlier had been shared equally between the Miro Quesada family, the Epensa company of the Agois Banchero
family and La Repun and La República of Mohme Seminario. After purchasing Epensa in 2013, El Comercio
has nine newspapers with editions in the north, center and south of the country.
The courts are yet to rule on the complaint against El Comerico for alleged violation of freedom of information.
El Comercio concentrates 65% of the monthly unique users of digital media measured by the Interactive
Advertising Bureau (IAB), which considers itself the world leading representative body for online advertising.
According to its data, El Comericio has 13 online digital media with a monthly audience estimated at 72.3
million unique users of the total for Peru of 109 million.
The digital version (elcomercio.pe) of El Comercio alone has more than 20 million users per month. Even
accounting for the fact that under Internet traffic measuring conventions, a single unique user does not
represent one person, the Miro Quesada family´s position in the online market is dominant. IAB Peru has used
the word “concentration”, in concluding that the five main digital media in its ranking receive 91% of the 236
million soles that the advertising industry invested in the sector in 2014.
The study Ciberperiodismo en Iberoamérica published in Spain in 2016, established that there are approximately
125 traditional print newspapers and 101 digital newspapers in Peru.

Television: The power of Chanel 4

El Comercio has less dominance in the free-to-air television market, where there is a more equitable
distribution according to average annual figures from Kantar Ibope Media in 2015: América Televisión-Canal 4
of El Comercio and La República (22.9%), Latina-Canal 2 of the investment fund Enfoca (16.3%) and ATV-Canal 9
of the Mexican magnate Ángel Gonzalez (10.8%).
The ATV Group, the second most important in the Peruvian market by monthly income after El Comercio,
concentrates a large number of channels. This media, whose parent is the Albavisión company in Miami, owns
11 of the 36 free-to-air channel available on Peru’s spectrum. A report for 2012 prepared by ConcorTv--an
organ of the Ministry of Transport and Communications--revealed that the ATV Group owns 16% of the 1,259
stations registered nationally.
In the case of radio, three media groups control 64% of the FM band in metropolitan Lima: Corporación Radial
del Perú of the Zavala family, the RPP Group of Delgado Natchigall family and Corporación Universal of the
Capuñay family.
Impact
The analysis of national industry concentration undertaken by Reporters Without Borders and Ojo-Publico.com
seeks to contribute to the debate about the influence and impact of groups of power in the community and
about the need for society to know who controls the main providers of the media consumed each day in Peru.

PERU
Affiliations
The MOM Project arose from the need to find out who are the real owners of the country's most important
media, what political affiliations or economic interests motivate their business decisions and in which other
sectors of the economy they have investments.
It is mainly families that exercise media power in Peru. Of the ten groups investigated by MOM Peru, six are
owned by close relatives, for example, brothers, cousins, parents and children. The Capuñay family of
Corporación Universal is a case in point. In the case of the Miro Quesada family of the El Comercio Group, the
ownership has been maintained over many generations.
The financial interests have not been diversified. Apart from the individual investments of the proprietors, the
media groups themselves remain almost exclusively invested in the communications sector. The El Comercio
Group is however the exception. It is the strongest and most diversified of all, with a presence in the
education, real estate and entertainment industries, as well as having investments in Chile, Colombia and
Bolivia. The panorama is changing slowly and with generation change this is set to intensify.
What Defines The Content?

Most media production with national reach is developed in Lima. The forty media investigated for MOM Peru
were selected because of their high ratings and income, as well as their importance. Some 17 broadcast news
and information with in-depth analysis. The remainder are dedicated to entertainment. The difference is more
marked in the radio and television sub sectors: only RPP Noticias (radio) and RPP TV and Canal N (TV) are 100%
news and information.
With few exceptions, regional media take no particular editorial stance. It is extremely easy to obtain radio or
television airtime in regional areas. Anyone able to afford the amount requested by the administrator (between
500 and 1000 soles per month for a one-hour radio block and between 2,500 and 3,000 soles per month for
television) can do so. The licensee uses the radio or television frequency, which is rented like a platform, to
offer his or her point of view about political or social events in the region. By addressing controversial issues,
some licensees have become popular and have subsequently sought mayorship with relative success.
Politics and Media

Unlike the findings from other MOM countries such as Turkey and Tunisia, no active or inactive political group
controls any media with a national audience. There is one example at regional level. The UCV Satelital
television channel is owned by César Acuña Peralta, businessman and politician, founder of the César Vallejo
University, former mayor of Trujillo, former congressman and presidential candidate in the 2016 elecion.
Nevertheless, the influence of political actors is felt in the media in two obvious ways: the treatment of
information and the advertising quotas. One could observe that the affinity a media outlet maintains with a
public servant or political authority affects the tenor of the relationship. Where they have opposing views, the
MEDIA

media will be incisive, critical and severe when commenting about the administration. Where interests are
shared, the media will be kinder, praising the positive and defending errors. For its part, the authority will
reward the media with access to information, “exclusive interviews” and it will increase the advertising quota.
The obligation on central, regional and local governments to defend their choice of media for state advertising
is not always complied with. On occasion, they favor friendly media and ignore those which question or
criticize.

PERU
Measuring Audience
A cross-cutting issue found when collecting information for the project is that no database exists showing total
audience figures across the entire market. Nor is there public information giving a general idea of the
distribution of the national audience. This information has to be obtained from private companies such as
Kantur Ibope Media (television), CPI (radio), SEPP (print media) and IAB (Internet), who dominate the survey
industry. Because these companies only register client information, media which do not pay for the service do
not appear in the data and are invisible.
This is extremely serious given the importance of audience ratings in the choices advertisers make when
investing their advertising budgets to reach the largest number of people. Accordingly, media that does not
form part of the reporting, generally local and regional, remain apart and are forced to seek other sources of
finance.
How is the Audience Measured?

Television: Since 1996, Ibope Time Perú (today Kantar Ibope Media) has been the only specialized company in
television audience surveying in Peru. Its system is based on the People Meters micro-computers that record
minute by minute television viewing in 780 randomly selected homes: 400 in Lima and 300 in the provinces of
Trujillo, Piura, Chiclayo, Cusco, Arequipa and Huancayo. The information obtained is made available to its
clients, primarily media, as well as publicity agents and advertisers.
Radio: Since 2000, Compañía Peruana de Estudios de Mercados y Opinión Pública S.A.C. (CPI) has undertaken
studies of AM/FM radio stations in Lima (four times per year) and nationally (in the urban areas of 24
departments, twice per year). It also undertakes research to discover the five most popular stations in 14 cities
around the country and an annual study to determine the coverage and signal quality of television and radio
channels. The results are freely available on its website (cpi.pe)
Print media: There are different information sources for print media. They are incomplete or outdated. The
Association of Peruvian Journalism Companies (SEPP) prepares monthly studies of circulation (total number of
copies distributed and sold) and reading habits (the number of people reading a particular print publication) in
Lima and the provinces. This only measures SEPP-member publications and so is not comprehensive. The
most recent reports are from 2014.
CPI also undertakes newspaper readership studies in metropolitan Lima. It also does so in 14 regional cities, to
determine the five most read newspapers in each locality. The most recent study for Lima is 2013, and for 2015
in the case of the provinces. They are freely available on the SEPP and CPI websites.
Internet: IAB Perú measures local web page visits. It is the national subsidiary of the Interactive Advertising
Bureau, the principal international entity representing the online advertising industry, with a presence in 40

Methodology
Theory: media pluralism as key for democratic societies
Media pluralism, meaning media that is free, independent, diverse, able to reflect diverging points of view and
which allows criticism of those in power, is a key characteristic of a democratic society.
There are generally two forms of media pluralism: that which is internal to media and that which is external.
Internal pluralism refers to the way in which social and political diversity is reflected in media content (for
example, the representation of different cultural groups and differing political opinions or ideologies). External
pluralism on the other hand, refers to the number of proprietors and the structure of their operations. This is
also known as supplier plurality.
Concentration in the media market runs contrary to media pluralism and is a risk to diversity of ideas.
Concentration includes:
1. Media ownership concentration: when just a few players exercise a dominant influence in public opinion
and raise barriers to the entry of other players and perspectives;
2. Media content concentration: when the media content is uniform and is focused only on certain issues,
people, ideas and opinions;
3. Audience concentration: when the audience only reads, sees or hears particular media.
Goal: creating media ownership transparency

Media pluralism covers many dimensions and faces a number of challenges, however MOM focuses specifically
on external pluralism. Most particularly, it focuses on the threat of concentration of ownership.
Lack of transparency is the greatest obstacle in the fight against concentration. How can people assess the
reliability of information if they do not know who is providing it? How can journalists do their job well if they do
not know who controls the company for which they work? And how can authorities regulate excessive media
concentration if they they do not know who is behind the running of the media.
MOM has three ways of addressing its objective of increasing transparency and responding to the question:
Who controls media content?
1. Reporting ownership of the country’s most important media in the various sectors (television, radio,
Internet, print) and their affiliates;
2. Analyzing the potential influence of audience concentration in the formation of public opinion;
3. Raising issues of ownership and media concentration, as well as the implementation of regulatory
safeguards.

Means: data collection and fieldwork

Using standardized methodology, MOM has developed a mapping tool that generates a publicly available
database detailing the proprietors of the largest media. This information will be continually updated.
The project also provides the particular context of each country and an analysis of its market and its legal
environment.
Local research teams undertake the data collection in collaboration with and under the supervision of
Reporters Without Borders. In the case of Peru, the project works with Ojo-Publico.com, a digital investigative
journalism and new narratives media outlet.
Official information sources, or sources with a high degree of reliability and trustworthiness have been used.
Information was sought directly from media companies, political representatives and research institutes. All
sources have been well documented and recorded.
Instrument: MOM-user guide

The researchers undertook data gathering using a detailed guide with the following sections:
. Section A “Context” This section provides a initial overview of the media market and contextual information,
such as the regulatory framework for property rights, country information and media-specific data. It makes
the results presented in the subsequent sections more comprehensible and puts into context the risks which
are assessed for media plurality.
. Section B “The Media Market“ This section specifies the types of media relevant to the formation of public
opinion, from the television, radio, newspaper, magazine and Internet sectors. The selection is based on
audience share.
. Section C “Ownership” This section researches the owners, shareholders and persons of influence for the
Top 10 of each media sector. It identifies the income for the major companies, as well as the characteristics of
the ownership arrangements.
. Section D “Indicators” This section explains the indicators which allow the calculation of a pluralism risk index
for media ownership concentration.
The methodology included use of other pre-existing research about media ownership and pluralism. In
particular the indicators are based on the Media Pluralism Monitor funded by the EU Center for Media
Pluralism and Media Freedom (CMPF) at the European University Institute (EUI, Florence).
Databases
MOM researches the country’s most important media owners. The selection was made using available market
ratings: for the selection of channels, Kantar Ibope was used; for radio, the two 2015 CPI surveys; for
newspapers, the most recent survey available from the Sociedad de Empresas Periodísticas del Perú-SEPP(The
Peruvian Association of Journalism Companies); for online media, the IAB 2015 survey.
Each survey has limitations. The Kantar Ibope television survey only measures its own clients (cable and free-to-
air channels with national reach) in Lima and six other cities and its system differs between the cable and free-
to-air. Accordingly, the selection was limited to the six free-to-air channels (Latina Televisión, América
Televisión, Panamericana Televisión, ATV, ATV+ and Red TV), the state channel (TV Perú) and three information

cable channels (Canal N, RPP TV and Willax).

There are only four national information radio broadcasters. Only one of these figures in the ten most popular
according the average of the two 2015 CPI surveys.
The SEPP survey used is from 2014. The La Republica Group has not published its circulation figures since its
confrontation with the El Comercio Group over the purchase of Epensa. The selection of ten newspaper is
rounded off by Exitosa, a new entry in the market and one which has had a big impact.
The media latina.pe and larepublica.pe were surveyed in only certain months of 2015 because IAB’s Internet
survey only measures its own clients. However even excluding the visits they would have received during the
months in which they were not surveyed, both media figure in the Top 10.
Sources such as the Securities Market Inspectorate and the book Peru: The Top 10,000 Companies 2016 were
used for information about total income and profits.
Information about media company proprietors has been cross-checked with information from the National
Inspectorate of Tax Administration and the National Inspectorate of Public Registries and was gathered from
news items and profiles prepared by the individuals themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is MOM?
The Media Ownership Monitor (MOM) has been developed as a mapping tool that generates a publicly
available database detailing the proprietors of the biggest communications media in each country (press,
television, radio and Internet) and their related interests. This information will be continually updated.
MOM seeks to make the risks to media pluralism brought about a concentration of media ownership more
visible (for more information: Methodology). MOM also qualitatively assesses market conditions and the
regulatory environment, so as to capture local characteristics and detect elements capable of increasing or
reducing the risk of media concentration.
2. Who is behind MOM?

MOM has been proposed and launched by Reporter ohne Grenzen e. V. – the German section of the
international human rights organization Reporters without Borders (Reporters sans frontières, RSF), that aims
to defend freedom of the press and the right to inform and be informed anywhere in the world.
RSF collaborates with a local partner in each country. In Peru the MOM implementation partner is Ojo-Público,
an investigative digital journalism and new narratives media. The project is funded by the German Federal
Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

4. Why is transparency of media ownership important?

Media pluralism is a key aspect of democratic societies as free, independent, and diverse media reflect
divergent viewpoints and allow criticism of people in power. Risks to diversity of ideas are caused by media
market concentration, when only a few players exercise a dominant influence on public opinion and raise
entrance barriers for other players and perspectives. The biggest obstacle to fight it is the lack of transparency
of media ownership. How can people evaluate the reliability of information, if they don´t know who provides it?
How can journalists work properly, if they don´t know who controls the company they work for? And how can
MEDIA
OWNERSHIP
MONITOR
PERU
media authorities address excessive media concentration, if they don not know who is behind the media's
steering wheel?
Through the raising of public awareness and the development of a factual information base, MOM’s objective is
to increase transparency and permit questioning of the dominant political and economic actors, by providing
the answer to the question: Who controls the communications media?
5. What kind of concentration regulation does MOM suggest?

MOM doesn’t make normative statements. It does not suggest how to control media ownership. Which form of
media concentration control can work, depends on the country context, the existing legal and market
conditions, the ownership landscape.
MOM provides a transparency tool to enforce a democratic discussion on that issue as well as good
governance: decisions are likely to be of higher quality and to better reflect the needs and wishes of the people
if they have access to adequate information and broad consultations, with views and opinions freely shared.
6. How is data collected and validated?

We preferred to use official sources or sources with a high degree of reliability.
Where nothing was publicly available, information was sought directly from media companies, politicians,
administrators and research institutions.
We used information available from:
- The National Inspectorate of Public Registries (SUNARP).
- The National Inspectorate of Tax Administration (SUNAT).
- The Securities Market Inspectorate (SMV).
- The State Procurement Supervisor (OSCE).
- The book: Peru: The Top 10,000 Companies 2016.
To guarantee objective evaluation, for verification and for difficult decisions, MOM-Peru worked with a
consultative group consisting of:
- Jorge Acevedo, communicator and university lecturer.
- Mario Munive, communicator and university lecturer.
- Jacqueline Fowks, contributing journalist of El País
- Simeon Tegel, RSF Peru.
- Santiago Pedraglio, journalist and university lecturer.
- Julia María Urrunaga, Peru Program Director, Environmental Research Agency (EIA).
MOM-Peru also interviewed the Vice-Minister for Communications, Carlos Valdez Velásquez López.
7. How is "most relevant media" defined?

The key question is: Which media influence the formation of public opinion?
In reviewing who are the proprietors of the most important media, we considered print media, radio, television
and digital. The selection was made using the following criteria:
MEDIA
OWNERSHIP
MONITOR
PERU
- The ten media in each category with the greatest reach measured by audience share.
- The value of the informational content and of the opinions expressed: The study focused on media
delivering content that is nationally relevant, with social networks, search engines and advertising excluded.
8. How are the media outlets selected?

Consistent with MOM methodology, the selection of the 40 media was undertaken based on studies of
audience share. Each survey had limitations and the team had to make choices in order to identify the ten
media for each category. Different sources were used.
TV
For television, the Kantar Ibope survey was employed, which measures total 2015 audience share between 6
am and 12 at midnight. However, this survey only measures its own clients (cable and free-to-air channels with
national reach) in Lima and six other cities. In addition, its survey system differs between cable and free-to-air.
Therefore, six free-to-air channels, (Latina Televisión, América Televisión, Panamericana Televisión, ATV, ATV+
and Red TV), the state channel (TV Perú) and three news and information cable channels (Canal N, RPP TV and
Willax) were selected.
Radio
For radio, the average of the two national surveys undertaken by the CPI company in 2015 was used. It became
evident that there were insufficient national broadcasters of news and information to create a Top 10 for
media which influence public opinion.
A decision was taken to select the ten highest rating stations, regardless of their content. Only one of these
broadcasts news and information. The remainder broadcast music and entertainment.
Print media
The selection of print media was undertaken based on the final survey for 2014 by the Peruvian Association of
Journalism Companies. There is no more recent source of information about circulation.
The selection of ten newspapers was rounded out with Exitosa, a new journal which has already had a
significant impact.
Digital
For Internet media, the 2015 IAB annual average audience share was deemed to be more reliable than
Alex.com.
However, because IAB’s Internet survey only measures its own clients, latina.pe and larepublica.pe were not
measured during certain months of 2015. However, even excluding the visits they would have received during
the months in which they were not surveyed, both media figure in the Top 10.
9. Why Peru?
The project aims to create an international ranking of media ownership concentration. Implementation began
in 2015 in two countries, followed by six more in 2016. The intention is to extend the list in 2017. Peru is a
development cooperation partner for Germany. It occupies position 80 on the World Freedom of the Press
Index (2016), published by Reporters Without Borders.
Peru’s score of 29.99 for freedom of the press is troubling. It indicates that media concentration is a significant,
particularly for the print media: the El Comercio Group owns close to 78% of print media, as well as one of the
main free-to-air channels.

OWNERSHIP

PERU
10. Does the MOM only exist for Peru?

MOM was developed as a generic methodology that can be universally applied – and potentially will be.
Notwithstanding that media concentration trends are observable worldwide; implementation and analysis will
first take place in developing countries. MOM has been implemented in around 20 countries over the course of
three years. All country projects can be found on the global website.
11. What are the limitations of the study?

- There is little information about audience share. Only one survey source exists for each media sector and
each presents problems (see: Methodology). While it was possible to select the 40 most important media, it was
not possible to calculate indicators. Lack of reliable information is itself a threat to market diversity.
- Scarce available financial information. Only one media group is publicly listed on the Lima Stock Exchange
and thus publishes its financial information for the Securities Market Inspectorate. Information for the
remaining countries has been taken from 2014 declarations published in the book Peru: The Top 10,000
Companies 2016. In the case of groups, only one member reports and sales of the remainder are unknown. In
many cases, there is no information about operating profits.
- There is no advertising information. Precise figures for advertising revenue do not exist. In some cases,
information has been published by researchers based on data available from the State Procurement
Supervisor. General information only is available about private contracts as there is no publicly available data.
- Market share is not publicly available. There is no official information about how the advertising share by
media is divided.
- Limited information about associated interests. The search for other businesses in which media owners
have an interest is hindered by the fact that while the National Inspectorate of Public Registries makes available
information about whether an individual has occupied a board position, it does not indicate whether that
individual is a shareholder. Searching by company name, it is possible to determine who the shareholders are.
12. Who do we target?

The database:
· Allows any citizen to inform themselves about the media system generally and the owners of the media he
or she consumes. The project also raises awareness about the importance of media ownership, transparency
and critical judgment about media content.
· It supports civil society activities that promote public awareness of the impact of media ownership
concentration.
· It provides a database for government authorities when establishing regulatory measures necessary to
safeguard media pluralism.

The database is a snapshot of the current situation in Peru, contextualized with relevant historic facts. Ojo-

Público.com will update it regularly.

Following implementation in other countries, an international ranking of media ownership concentration will

ranking rely heavily on the EU-funded Media Pluralism Monitor of the Centre for Media Pluralism and Media
Freedom (CMPF) at the European University Institute (EUI, Florence). Moreover, Media Pedia, an ownership

- To act in cooperation with governments to fight censorship and laws aimed at restricting freedom of
information;
- To morally and financially assist persecuted journalists, as well as their families.

financially independent. In that role, it has applied for a grant at the federal German Ministry for Economic
Cooperation and Development – in order to finance the Media Ownership Monitor project.
