Local Media

Both the national press and the television stations are state-controlled and offer little criticism of the government and scant coverage of the opposition.

There are no English-language papers and just one national daily newspaper - Le Jour. There are a number of local private newspapers that publish weekly (or more sporadically) in Conakry; these tend to be more critical of the government. These include:
