Nankaidō Shimbun

The Nankaidō Shimbun (南海道新聞, Geusyoan: Namkaidau Simbun) is a Shirakawan regional. It is published in Wanshu and Pebi, and is generally circulated throughout Geusyo and the Shirakawan West Coast. Owned by the News Alliance Group, it is the largest regional newspaper in Chisei and the second most widely read newspaper in Wanshu after the Four Nation Times. It is printed twice daily, with morning and evening issues in both Shirakawan and Geusyoan. Both editions are handled by the same editorial team, but differ slightly with local interest/cultural stories. In December 2021 the Shirakawan Nankaidō Shimbun had an average morning circulation of 1,803,263; the Geusyoan edition had a circulation of 670,201 in the same period.

As a traditionally center-left/liberal publication, the Nankaidō Shimbun has historically been associated with the Royalist Party and occasionally the Social Front. In Geusyo, it is considered to be a staunchly unionist paper, opposed to Geusyoan independence; the paper frequently criticises Geusyoan regionalist and pro-independence politicians, and openly campaigned for 'No' during the 1992 Geusyoan independence referendum. Since 2019, the paper has strongly supported the governing Civic Movement coalition and the New Citizens Party; current NCP Prime Minister Nishioka Kyōka was a weekly columnist for the Nankaidō Shimbun from 1991 to 2006.
