The media of Los Angeles are influential and include some of the most important production facilities in the world. As part of the "Creative Capital of the World", it is a major global center for media and entertainment. In addition to being the home of Hollywood, the center of the American motion picture industry, the Los Angeles area is the second largest media market in North America (after New York City). Many of the nation's media conglomerates either have their primary headquarters (like The Walt Disney Company) or their West Coast operations (like NBCUniversal) based in the region. Universal Music Group, one of the "Big Four" record labels, is also based in the Los Angeles area.
The major daily newspaper is the Los Angeles Times, while La Opinión is the city's major daily Spanish-language paper. The Hollywood Reporter and Variety are significant entertainment industry papers in Los Angeles. There are also a wide variety of smaller regional newspapers, alternative weeklies and magazines, including LA Weekly, Los Angeles magazine, the Los Angeles Business Journal, the Los Angeles Daily Journal, and the Los Angeles Downtown News. In addition to the English- and Spanish-language papers, numerous local periodicals serve immigrant communities in their native languages, including Korean, Persian, Russian and Japanese.
Los Angeles neighborhoods also have community weekly newspapers and news websites, which include The Argonaut, Westside Today and the Westside Current, which covers the Westside neighborhoods, Park La Brea News, which covers the Park La Brea and Miracle Mile neighborhoods, the Eastsider which covers Boyle Heights, East Los Angeles, Northeast Los Angeles neighborhoods, Echo Park, Silver Lake, Atwater Village, Los Feliz and East Hollywood and Los Angeles Downtown News, which covers the Downtown area.
The Southern California News Group, a subsidiary of Digital First Media, operates eleven other regional daily newspapers in greater Los Angeles, with all covering four of the five Los Angeles DMA counties. The Los Angeles Daily News, published in the San Fernando Valley community of Woodland Hills, serves as the flagship newspaper of SCNG in Los Angeles County; other publications under the SCNG umbrella include the Torrance-based Daily Breeze (serving the South Bay and southwestern Los Angeles County), Long Beach Press-Telegram which serves Long Beach and Gateway Cities, San Gabriel Valley Tribune serves the central and eastern San Gabriel Valley, the Whittier Daily News serves the Greater Whittier area, the Pasadena Star-News serves the Greater Pasadena area and the Orange County Register, which SCNG acquired (along with the Riverside Press-Enterprise) from Freedom Communications in March 2016.
Los Angeles arts, culture and nightlife news is also covered by a number of local and national online guides like Time Out Los Angeles, Thrillist, Kristin's List, LAist, and Flavorpill.
Film
The city's Hollywood neighborhood is notable as the home of the U.S. film industry, and its name has come to be a shorthand reference for the industry and the people in it. The industry's "Big Five" major film studios (Sony, Disney, Paramount, Universal, and Warner Bros.) are all based in or around Hollywood. Several other smaller and independent film companies also operate in the Los Angeles area.

Television
The Los Angeles area is the home of several major offices and production facilities in the television industry.

CBS owns CBS Studio Center in Studio City and previously owned Television City in the Fairfax District, although the network still maintains operations on that lot. ABC and parent company Disney produce programs at the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank and The Prospect Studios in the Los Feliz neighborhood. NBC primarily produced shows at what is now The Burbank Studios before parent NBCUniversal moved their operations to a complex adjacent to the Universal Studios lot. Several other film studios may also produce TV shows on their respective lots.
