SCORES: Individual scores: 2, 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 2, 2, 2 Average score: 2.0 3.9 The public broadcaster is technically accessible in the entire country. ANALYSIS: GBC’s radio signal has more or less national coverage. The same cannot be said for TV. Settlements along the borders with neighbouring countries suffer from signal spillage from beyond the borders, like Wa in the Upper East region bordering Bourkina Faso, and some towns in the Volta and Western regions bordering Togo and the Ivory Coast respectively. Generally, however, coverage is regarded as sufficient. SCORES: Individual scores: 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, 4 Average score: 4.1 3.10 The public broadcaster offers diverse programming for all interests. ANALYSIS: The public broadcaster offers diverse programming for all interests, age and gender groups, and rural/urban audiences. This achievement might be in danger if GBC is forced to “commercialise”, in line with indications from some circles in government that the corporation should be run as a commercial entity. This might subject it to the same profit motive governing other private TV stations which happen to be its competitors, such as TV Three. 20
