DER STANDARD

Website

DER STANDARD is an Austrian daily newspaper published in Vienna and considered a newspaper of record for Austria. It was founded by Oscar Bronner in 1988. The publisher, STANDARD Verlagsgesellschaft m.b.H., is wholly owned by STANDARD Medien AG, whose shareholders are Oscar Bronner with 58.91 percent and Andrea Bronner with 19.64 percent according to the legal disclosure on derstandard.at. Bronner later bought back the 49 percent stake that had belonged to the Süddeutsche Verlag.

Features

  • Printed daily newspaper and the news website derStandard.at with live tickers and analysis.
  • Coverage of Austrian and international politics, economy, culture, science and sport.
  • Reader forums on articles, which are an established part of the site.
  • Newsletters and apps.

Model and limits

Part of the website is free, and a subscription offers additional content and the option to use the site with less advertising. The main audience is German-speaking and the focus is Austria, so international readers will find fewer English-language pieces.
