RTVE continues to gain ground in citizens' trust. This is reflected in the Digital News Report Spain 2026, prepared for the Reuters Institute at the University of Oxford, which places the public corporation as one of the most credible news brands in the country. According to the study, 52% of respondents trust the information offered by RTVE, 4 points more than the previous year.
The report highlights that RTVE is the protagonist of "one of the most visible advances of the year" in a context marked by concern about disinformation and the rise of content generated by artificial intelligence. This improvement allows the corporation to surpass numerous national newspapers and media in trust, consolidating its position within the Spanish audiovisual landscape.
One of the most notable aspects of the study is the transversal evolution of trust in RTVE. Although positive perception remains higher among citizens ideologically positioned to the left, the report underlines that the improvement also occurs among right-wing sectors, where growth has been especially significant during the last year.
In addition, RTVE remains the television that has best managed to transfer its traditional audience to the digital environment. With a 12% weekly digital audience, it is the only television channel that surpasses this barrier and presents the best conversion data between offline and online consumption. Its total net reach already stands at 34%, a figure that reinforces the integration strategy between television, radio, and digital platforms promoted by the corporation.
