The Chad media landscape on Crosswire
Crosswire lays Chad's front pages next to one another so you can see which stories lead where, how headlines are framed, and what one outlet foregrounds that another leaves out. All 4 titles tracked in Chad sit near the editorial centre in our classification, which is common where the press is dominated by public broadcasters and agencies, or where no confident left/right rating was available. Comparison here is less about political line than about which stories each newsroom judges worth the top of the page.
By kind of outlet, the 4 titles break down as 2 digital-native outlets (Alwihda Info and Tchadinfos) and 2 daily newspapers (Le Pays and N'Djaména Hebdo). Crosswire lists no public-service broadcaster for Chad, so the fixed point in a comparison has to be a wire service or the most widely read daily instead.
Chad sits in Central Africa, on Crosswire's Africa hub. By outlets tracked it is 3rd of the 7 countries in Central Africa and 16th of the 45 across Africa, where the average is 4 outlets per country. Its neighbours in Central Africa with hubs of their own are DR Congo (4), Cameroon (4), Gabon (4), Burundi (4), Republic of the Congo (3) and Central African Republic (3).
