About La Nación

Paper Of Record Center-rightRead with context

La Nación is owned by Grupo Nación S.A., a media conglomerate that also holds several other newspapers, magazines, and related companies in Costa Rica. Grupo Nación also operates radio stations through an alliance with the Spanish Grupo Prisa. Media Bias/Fact Check notes that the ownership information of Grupo Nación is not transparent, though Carlos González Jiménez serves as chairman.

Media Bias/Fact Check rates La Nación as right-center biased and mostly factual, but notes concerns regarding a lack of transparency and poor sourcing techniques. The outlet has been at the center of press freedom controversies in Costa Rica, facing verbal attacks and alleged attempts to undermine its reporting from President Rodrigo Chaves's administration. Reporters Without Borders and Freedom House have documented a decline in press freedom in Costa Rica since 2022, citing government hostility towards critical journalists, including those from La Nación. The Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice of Costa Rica has ruled in favor of La Nación journalists in a case concerning violations of press freedom by the presidency.
