About Delfi Latvia

News Portal Read with context

Delfi Latvia is a subsidiary of AS Ekspress Grupp, a leading Baltic media group headquartered in Estonia. The company was founded in 1999 and acquired by Ekspress Grupp in 2007. Its revenue is generated through advertisements and subscriptions.

Media Bias/Fact Check assesses Delfi as having a right-center bias, often using loaded words in headlines, and rates its factual reporting as 'Mostly Factual' due to some poor sourcing techniques. Delfi operates in multiple Baltic states and provides content in both Latvian and Russian. While some user discussions suggest a potential pro-Russian bias in its Russian-language content, a 2018 DFRLab analysis indicated that Delfi's Russian-language version did not exhibit the same pro-Russian party bias as state-owned Russian media. The outlet states adherence to strict editorial standards, emphasizing objectivity, impartiality, and accuracy. Latvia's press environment is considered free, though Reporters Without Borders has noted concerns regarding political pressure on media and access to diverse information for the Russian-speaking population.
