Public Eye
Private weekly newspaper published in Maseru since the late 1990s, one of Lesotho's longest-running independent titles. Reporting in English on politics, the judiciary, business and development, it is a regular source for coverage of the kingdom's fractious coalition politics, and publiceyenews.com carries its reporting to online and diaspora readers.

Is Public Eye left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists Public Eye as Center within Lesotho'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 Public Eye beside another title from Lesotho and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two Lesotho 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 Public Eye's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Public Eye is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Lesotho title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
