Chile has a strong media accountability system. Both public and private media outlets serve the country’s telecommunication and news needs.

The media landscape is composed of five national and two regional newspapers, about ten TV channels, and more than ten national radio stations. Recently, the government financed and promoted Internet access across Chile, which is now the most connected country in Latin America.
