Izvestia newspaper confirmed its absolute leadership among print media in 2024

Izvestiya newspaper has been an unchallenged leader among print media for seven years.

In 2024, Izvestiya once again topped the top 10 of the most quoted federal print media. The publication's citation index, with a 1.5-fold gap, amounted to 32,225.88. The second line of the rating is occupied by Kommersant newspaper (CI: 22,490.80), and the third place was taken by Rossiyskaya Gazeta (CI: 9,835.81).

"The leader of the rating in 2024 among newspapers is still Izvestia. Izvestia reported the death of its military correspondent Semyon Eremin as a result of an FPV drone attack in a special operation zone. Izvestia also reported about the tragedy in Crocus City Hall. In addition, Izvestia wrote that the availability of MTPL insurance will begin to be checked by traffic cameras and about the growth of the average old-age pension to 24 thousand in 2025," the report says.

When calculating the rating, federal Russian mass media were taken into account, as well as Internet resources that cover federal and regional events.
