Gabon's Media Regulator Does it Again, Suspending a Leading News Site

press release

Reporters Without Borders (RSF) is appalled to learn that Gabon’s media regulator, the High Authority for Communication (HAC), has shut down one of the country’s most popular news websites for a month. The HAC keeps on harassing the media and this latest arbitrary sanction confirms its complete loss of credibility.

RSF has been denouncing the HAC’s unjustified media closures for more than a year and each time another occurs, press freedom in Gabon is dealt a new blow.
