## About

The Armenian outlet most often filed as establishment never runs a favourable word about the government. Roughly five hundred items a day cross three editions, three quarters of it foreign wire, the domestic remainder built from jailed opposition figures, church defenders and Kremlin press bureaus quoted without reply. Its owner founded it alongside a former energy minister and an offshore company nobody has traced.

## Profile

- **Ownership:** Published by News AM LLC, registered in January 2011 and wholly owned since October 2018 by Armenika Kiviryan, who is simultaneously its editor-in-chief; Marine Andreasyan has been director since September 2024. Co-founded with a former energy minister and an untraceable offshore company. No state stake.
- **Funding:** Advertising, paid content and commercial video, photography, branding and marketing services. No annual accounts or financial disclosure of any kind could be located by the country's media ownership monitor.
- **Focus areas:** Armenian domestic politics, international wire aggregation, foreign policy, incidents, plus sport, technology, style and medicine verticals


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
