Hello everyone,

Living in Mongolia provides countless occasions to browse local newspapers, listen to local radio stations or watch local TV shows. As everywhere else in the world, local media play a key role in informing the public.

What are the major media in Mongolia? Which one do you use on a regular basis?

How do you keep up with international issues (newspapers, radio, TV, Internet)?

Thank you in advance!

Priscilla

As an editor of the longest running English language newspaper in Mongolia, The UB Post, I am grateful to stay on top of domestic news. I've also worked for other news outlets and I work with local companies on communications as an editor. Understanding how Mongolians perceive and respond to political and economic troubles has done a lot to change my perspective on things in Mongolia. I wish more expats would take the time to keep up with local news as well - and not just rely on how Mongolia is portrayed by foreign journalists and press releases from foreign interests.
