Dar es Salaam. Tanzania has topped the East African Community (EAC) region with the best media freedom rankings, according to the new rankings by Reporters Without Borders (RSF).
Ranked at the 97th position globally in the latest report, Tanzania has climbed 46 places compared to the 2022 standings, an improvement attributed to the new administration's approach to loosening the grip on the right to news and information and the freedom to report.
