Pubblicato su freepress, media a 8:11 pm di Beatrice Ferrario

20 minutos is the most read free paper in Spain, with 2.373.000 daily readers, dispite loosing 11.000 in the first quarter of the year. Qué!, Metro Directo and ADN follow, with 1.883.000, 1.685.000 and 153.000 readers, respectively.

20 minutos is reporting a loss compared to the last quarter of 2006. While Qué! and ADN appear stable, Metro is the free daily which grew most from november 2006, gaining 116.000 readers solely in this quarter. Metro’s growth is probably due to the recent layout restyling and the changes in the distribution policy.

I’m sure Mimun will easily find himself ‘at home’ at Mediaset, after the enthusiasm he showed towards Berlusconi’s government during his editorial management at the tg1.
