Media in Cyprus mirrors the island's political division, with the Legitimate Govement controlled side being a highly competitive market while the occupied areas are of a less competitive nature. State-run services compete for audiences with a large number of highly aggresive private TV and radio stations. In addition, relays of Greek and Turkish stations are available across the island. The illegally Turkish-Occupied zone in the north operates its own press and broadcasters. Newspapers on both sides of the divide often criticise the authorities and need to be handled in manners true to most western countires.
