History and profile

Jutarnji list was launched in April 1998,[5] becoming the first successful Croatian daily newspaper to appear since the 1950s.[6] It was named after the Jutarnji list [hr] Zagreb daily that used to circulate from 1912 until 1941. The newspaper is part of Hanza Media media group.

In 2003, Jutarnji list launched a comprehensive Sunday edition, Nedjeljni Jutarnji. On 19 February 2005, Jutarnji list published an exhaustive biography of Ante Gotovina.[a]

The paper quickly took the majority of the Croatian media market and became one of the most-read newspapers in that country. In the first five years, it sold more than 214 million copies.[6] During the actual economic crisis, the number of sold copies diminished from about 80,000 in 2007 to 52,763 in 2013.[6][8] The crisis hit in the same manner as other daily newspapers in Croatia.[9] The circulation of Jutarnji list was 66,000 copies in October 2014.[10]

Controversies

In February 2008, Jutarnji list was involved in a scandal when it published an interview[11][12] with what was thought to be Prime Minister of Croatia Ivo Sanader. The reporter contacted then-23-year-old Viktor Zahtila by e-mail and SMS, whom he assumed to be the prime minister.[13] Zahtila replied via e-mail[14] and did not state that he was Ivo Sanader.
