Front page of the Royal Gazette

The Royal Gazette, founded in 1828, is the only daily newspaper in the island nation of Bermuda. It is published Mondays through Saturdays; there is no Sunday edition.

With an average daily circulation 14,578 copies (last audited November 2007), the paper says it reaches around 90% of the adult population. The Royal Gazette is owned by The Bermuda Press (Holdings) Ltd. Bill Zuill is currently Editor-in-Chief and Jeremy Deacon is Assistant Editor.^[1]

The Sports section devotes extensive coverage to Bermuda's cricket and football (soccer) teams, along with reports of English football and occasional wire stories on American football and baseball. The weekly Shipping section provides news about port issues and details of cargo and cruise ship arrivals, which are of interest to the remote island's readers. The Saturday Religion section has a large number of church ads, along with news accounts of church programmes and issues.

When the Royal Gazette's sister paper, the weekly Mid-Ocean News, ceased publication in October, 2009, its full-colour comics section and magazine-style television guide insert became Royal Gazette features.^[1]
