Media Details
La Gazzetta dello Sport has nearly 3.7 million readers and is the most popular daily paper in Italy. Millions of people dive into its pages every day. They are looking for the news they want to read... as opposed to the news they "have to" read (the news normally provided by standard daily papers). People generally read La Gazzetta dello Sport in their spare time.

Its main features are objective reports on sports events and the football market, 'stats' and 'titbits' included, in-depth reporting on sport, the sport and ethics debate, and editorials by top writers. All these features contribute to making La Gazzetta dello Sport the most authoritative specialised journal in Italy both for sportspeople and the general public.

The newspaper has recently been revamped and has adopted a new photo editing policy, leading to increased sales and advertising space. La Gazzetta dello Sport has also notched up successes with its customised advertising service - thanks, above all, to the interest generated by the accompanying in-depth info sections.
