Nyasa Times
Malawi's most prominent online news publication, launched in 2006 and long run with editorial operations partly outside the country, which helped it publish stories mainstream domestic media avoided. Updated around the clock in English, it covers politics, corruption scandals, business and entertainment and draws a large readership at home and across the diaspora.

Is Nyasa Times left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists Nyasa Times as Center within Malawi'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 Nyasa Times beside another title from Malawi and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Digital-native outlets reorder their front pages continuously in response to reader behaviour, so Nyasa Times may look different an hour from now — reload it alongside a print-cycle title and you can see which stories have staying power and which are traffic spikes. Because Nyasa Times is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Malawi title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
