Právo (inCzech RightorLaw) is a Czech daily newspaper published in Prague, Czech Republic.[1]

History and profile

[edit]

Právo emerged in 1991[2] following the Velvet Revolution, when some editors of the daily Rudé právo founded a new company unaffiliated with the Czechoslovak Communist Party but taking advantage of the existing reader base.[1] The paper is not directly linked to any political party, but is ideologically close to the Czech Social Democratic Party.[3] It maintains a left-wing stance[1][4] and tends to focus on social issues.[5]

In 2019 Právo allowed the Chinese embassy to produce an eight-page paid supplement to the paper labelled as a “theme and commercial supplement.” The articles featured exclusively positive coverage of China and were signed by the paper’s reporters.[6]

Právo is published in Prague by Borgis,[2][7] a stock company that issues only Právo and its supplements,[1] owned for 91% by the paper's editor-in-chief, Zdeněk Porybný.[5] The paper is published in broadsheet format.[8]

Circulation

[edit]

The circulation of Právo was 205,000 copies in 2002, making it the third best selling newspaper in the country.[8] In October 2003 the paper had a circulation of 189,583 copies and was again the third most read newspaper in the Czech Republic.[7] In December 2004 the circulation of the paper was 189,583 copies.[9]

The 2007 circulation of Právo was 164,157 copies. The circulation of the paper was 145,031 copies in 2008 and 138,476 copies in 2009.[10] It was 128,404 copies in 2010 and 120,449 copies in 2011.[10] Between April and September 2012 Právo had a circulation of 112,000 copies.[2]
