The news industry in Ghana is diverse and includes a mix of state-owned and privately-owned media outlets. The state-owned Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) operates several radio and television stations and a news website. The privately-owned media comprises newspapers, radio stations, and television stations, many of which are affiliated with political parties or other groups. The Ghanaian media is relatively free, but there have been instances of government pressure on media outlets and journalists. However, due to the media's diversity, it can still provide a range of viewpoints and criticisms of government policies.
