==Media==
Amsterdam is a prominent centre for national and international media. Some locally based newspapers include ''[[Het Parool]]'', a national daily paper; ''[[De Telegraaf]]'', the largest Dutch daily newspaper; the daily newspapers ''[[Trouw]]'', ''[[de Volkskrant]]'' and ''[[NRC (newspaper)|NRC]]''; ''[[De Groene Amsterdammer]]'', a weekly newspaper; the free newspapers ''[[Metro (Dutch newspaper)|Metro]]'' and ''[[The Holland Times]]'' (printed in English).

Amsterdam is home to the second-largest Dutch commercial TV group [[SBS Broadcasting Group]], consisting of TV stations [[SBS 6]], [[Net 5]], and [[Veronica (TV channel)|Veronica]]. However, Amsterdam is not considered 'the media city of the Netherlands'. The town of [[Hilversum]], {{cvt|30|km|abbr=off}} south-east of Amsterdam, has been crowned with this unofficial title. Hilversum is the principal centre for radio and television broadcasting in the Netherlands. [[Radio Netherlands Worldwide|Radio Netherlands]], heard worldwide via shortwave radio since the 1920s, is also based there. Hilversum is home to an extensive complex of audio and television studios belonging to the national broadcast production company NOS, as well as to the studios and offices of all the Dutch public broadcasting organisations and many commercial TV production companies.

In 2012, the music video for "Live My Life" by Far East Movement was filmed in various parts of Amsterdam.

Several movies have been filmed in Amsterdam, including the [[James Bond]] film ''[[Diamonds Are Forever (film)|Diamonds Are Forever]]'', ''[[Ocean's Twelve]]'', ''[[Girl with a Pearl Earring (film)|Girl with a Pearl Earring]]'', ''[[Kidnapping Freddy Heineken|Kidnapping Mr. Heineken]]'', ''[[Layer Cake (film)|Layer Cake]]'' and ''[[The Hitman's Bodyguard]]''. Amsterdam is also featured in [[John Green]]'s book ''[[The Fault in Our Stars]]'', which was made into [[The Fault in Our Stars (film)|a film]] that also partly takes place in Amsterdam.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Birtles |first=Katie |date=2021-01-22 |title=Amsterdam on the silver screen - 11 movies filmed in the Dutch capital |url=https://www.trafalgar.com/real-word/movies-filmed-in-amsterdam/ |access-date=2024-11-29 |website=Real Word |language=en-GB}}</ref>
