Many Cambodian newspapers and private broadcasters depend on support from political parties. Prime Minister Hun Sen and his allies control several outlets.
In early 2010, Reporters Without Borders said several journalists were in prison or facing criminal charges over their work, despite an earlier pledge from the prime minister that journalists would not be jailed because of their output.
Imprisonment can be imposed for "spreading false information or insulting public officials", Freedom House reports.
There are no restrictions on satellite receivers and radio stations from neighbouring countries can be heard.
BBC World Service broadcasts via BBC 100 FM in Phnom Penh and BBC 99.25 FM in Siem Reap. Radio France Internationale is available in the capital.
By September 2009 there were 74,000 internet users (InternetWorldStats). Access is largely limited to the main towns and cities.
There are no reports of widespread filtering of content. "Individuals and groups could engage in the peaceful expression of views via the internet," the US State Department noted in 2010.
