The Trinidad Express Newspaper is the National Newspaper of Trinidad and Tobago which was founded in 1967 by a group of journalists who found themselves displaced when the British-owned “Daily Mirror” was brought out by foreign owners of the rival Guardian newspaper. Fifty years later it is now owned by its holding company, Caribbean Caribbean Network (CCN), which also owns the country’s leading television station TV 6 and has significant holdings in a number of Caribbean media houses.
Founded on the precepts of good solid expository and investigative reporting it is surpassed by none in its field. Its clear and concise yet simple style reaches a wide cross section of the Trinidad and Tobago society. The Express is the pulse of the people as it strives to reflect each of these facets by enlightening (in depth looks into historic origins) and sensitizing (coverage of festivals) the nation to each culture that makes the society so wonderfully diversified.
