L'Union
L'Union is Gabon's main daily newspaper, published in Libreville by Sonapresse since 1975. Long aligned with the state as the country's semi-official daily, it covers Gabonese politics, government, the economy, society and sport nationwide, and its website carries the paper's daily coverage online, making it a fixture of the Gabonese press.

Is L'Union left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists L'Union as Center within Gabon's media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side.
Read L'Union beside another title from Gabon and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two Gabon dailies covering the same day will usually agree on the facts and differ on the ordering: which story is worth the top of the page, how the headline characterises it, and which follow-ups get space. Those are L'Union's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because L'Union is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Gabon title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
