This is a list of newspapers in Cuba. All newspapers published in Cuba are tightly controlled by the Cuban government, led by the Communist Party of Cuba. Independent digital media in Cuba is mostly financed by the US Government through the National Endowment for Democracy or other organizations, or in some cases through other governments.
National newspapers Granma — published by the Communist Party of Cuba Juventud Rebelde — published by the Union of Young Communists Trabajadores — published by the Centre of Cuban Workers 光华报 (Chinese language; established as La voz de los obreros y campesinos in 1928)
Provincial newspapers Each of Cuba's 16 provinces has a regional weekly, which acts as the official newspaper published by each provincial Communist Party branch. The two most recently launched, El Artemiseño and Mayabeque, began publication in 2011, to serve the newly formed provinces of Artemisa and Mayabeque.
Each weekly has its own website with local news, updated daily, which offers weekly print editions for free download in the PDF format. Some also publish online editions in English.
