The Voice
The Voice is one of Botswana's most widely read newspapers, founded in Francistown in 1993. A privately owned weekly tabloid published mainly in English, it combines human-interest stories, entertainment and celebrity coverage with news and consumer features, and maintains one of the largest readerships and social media followings of any outlet in the Botswana press.

Is The Voice left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists The Voice as Center within Botswana'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 The Voice beside another title from Botswana and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Tabloid front pages compress the day into one dominant image and a short, emphatic headline, so with The Voice the editorial choice is mostly in what earns that single slot — and what is pushed off the page entirely. Because The Voice is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Botswana title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
