Chad Sector 2: The media landscape is characterized by diversity, independence and sustainability. 2.1 . A wide range of sources of information (written, audio-visual, internet) is available and accessible to citizens. ANALYSIS: The national media is still underserved. The sources of information are not enough. The country has some fifteen private radio-stations. Besides the daily bulletin of the Chadian Media Agency, there are 10 newspapers (one daily private newspaper, 1 bi-weekly, 3 weekly, 2 monthly, 2 every two months, and 1 bimonthly) which are published regularly. There are about ten other newspapers for which publication is irregular. The circulation of newspapers is very limited. The national radio does not cover the entire country and the only public TV station covers only some 80 km radius around the capital city. There is no private TV station. In 4 provincial towns (Moundou, Sarh, Abéché and Faya), the regional antenna gives access to news by relay. This handicap is balanced by about ten community radiostations broadcasting in frequency modulation (FM). The availability of sources of information is simply relative. Only a few people have access to internet in the capital which is almost inaccessible in the interior of the country. Two mobile telephone companies provide access to internet to a certain class of people but this access remains derisory.
