About Trinidad Express
The Trinidad Express is published by the Caribbean Communications Network (CCN), which is a member of One Caribbean Media (OCM) Limited. OCM was formed in 2006 through the merger of CCN and Nation Corporation of Barbados, establishing it as one of the largest and most diversified media organizations in the Caribbean.
The Trinidad Express, established in 1967, operates within a media environment where press freedom is constitutionally guaranteed and generally upheld. However, major media bias aggregators like Ground News report an 'unknown' bias for Trinidad Express Newspapers, with AllSides having a low-confidence 'Lean Right' rating for 'Daily Express'. The outlet faced a significant defamation lawsuit in 2026, where it was ordered to pay over $500,000 for publishing a false advertisement, indicating potential issues with editorial oversight. Furthermore, Reporters Without Borders has noted a concerning climate for journalists in Trinidad and Tobago, with rising crime and a state of emergency leading to increased threats, harassment, and self-censorship.
