Sirleaf's Daily Talk

Daily Talk, a news service in Monrovia, Liberia, was brought to my attention by The Monocle. Alfred J. Sirleaf is Daily Talk's founder and managing editor.


A 2006 The New York Times article summarizes Sirleaf's motivation this way.

Mr. Sirleaf is something of an information evangelist, fervent in his belief that a well-informed citizenry is the key to the rebirth of his homeland, ravaged by 14 years of civil war. As the nation slowly comes back from the brink of annihilation, he said, he wants to make sure every Liberian can keep up with the news and play a part in the country’s young democratic government.
