In addition to the 232 country reports, WPT includes a wealth of summaries that provide a detailed global picture of the newspaper world.

This edition has been again expanded with the following data and information:

– Glossary of newspaper industry terms and expressions used in tables within country reports

– Year when a top-10 daily newspaper was founded

– More data about numbers of online editions; if these data are missing in a country report of a major market, it usually means that almost all daily newspapers in that country have established their online editions (websites)

– Summaries of national/regional daily newspapers, including data on numbers of titles and circulations

– Commentary about every country and territory, including a broader and more complete overview of other media, especially the Internet and broadcast

– VAT standard rates for more than 200 countries and territories
