Media in Aberdeen

Media in Aberdeen have long been published or broadcast. The main newspaper of the city and the surrounding area, the Press and Journal, has been made and printed in the city since 1748, making it Scotland's oldest newspaper.

The city has a number of regional radio stations and has local production facilities for the BBC and ITV.

Aberdeen is famous for the entertainers of Scotland The What.

Student media at the University of Aberdeen are also very active: student newspaper The Gaudie, Aberdeen Student Radio and Granite City TV are all produced by students.

The main newspapers of Aberdeen are the daily Press and Journal and the Evening Express, both printed six days a week by Aberdeen Journals, which also printed the Aberdeen Citizen until it ceased publication in 2018.

Student newspaper The Gaudie is produced fortnightly during term time at the University of Aberdeen. It is free and is distributed around the Kings College Campus and throughout the city.

For over 45 years, Aberdeen has been home to the ITV regional franchise for northern Scotland, Grampian Television, broadcast from a converted tram depot in the Queens Cross area. Since a takeover by the Scottish Media Group (now STV Group plc) in 1997, Grampian's identity and local programming output have gradually been depleted: now Grampian is officially known as STV North, and broadcasts from smaller studios in the Tullos area of the city. The local news programme STV News at Six is still produced from Aberdeen alongside regional commercials.

BBC Scotland also have a base in Aberdeen's Beechgrove area. BBC Aberdeen is most known for Tern TV's production of The Beechgrove Garden television and BBC radio programmes.
