Horoya is a government daily and the Guinean Press Agency (Agence Guinéenne de Presse, AGP) is also run by government. These media are under total state control and publish mainly institutional and government information. Their journalists are government employees, who owe allegiance to their employer. This determines editorial policy and results in “remote-controlled” editorials. However, according to some panelists these media organisations still retain a measure of professional quality. A trend towards the assertion of freedom of speech brought about by the current democratisation period was also noted.
