Brazil-based, English-language; right-center on Brazilian politics (per Media Bias/Fact Check)
The Rio Times is a small, independently run English-language news site in Rio de Janeiro. It is run by Swiss-born publisher Matthias Camenzind. It covers Brazil, Latin America and the Global South, and Media Bias/Fact Check rates it right-center. Its coverage of the Trump administration is mostly factual and business-oriented, and it reports Brazil–U.S. tariff and trade developments without a clear pro- or anti-Trump line.
Owned byPrivately held. Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Matthias Camenzind, a Swiss-born journalist, bought it in March 2019 from its American founder, Stone Korshak. The site's 'About' page gives limited detail on the ownership structure, so his exact ownership stake is not independently confirmed.
