Media in Aberdeen

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

Student newspaper The Gaudie is produced fortnightly during term time at the University of Aberdeen.

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.

Original 106 have increased their audience share to become the second most listened to local radio station,[3] with 100% of programming output produced and presented in-house.

This has now become the internet station Aberdeen Student Radio, which broadcasts every day during term time from the Kings College campus.
