## About

Twice a day Radio Tamazuj goes out on shortwave into a country that once shut its Juba office, carrying court reports, cattle raids and county politics. Its datelines come from eight of ten states, filed by reporters it will not name and edited from an exile address it will not disclose. The newsroom that keeps South Sudan's fullest public record of the Machar trial publishes nothing at all about who pays for it.

## Profile

- **Ownership:** Established in 2011 by the Dutch media-development foundation Free Press Unlimited through its South Sudan office, and described by both parties as editorially independent since 2020. No separate legal entity, registered address, board or editor-in-chief is published, and Free Press Unlimited still carries the outlet as a project income line in its own budgets through 2026.
- **Funding:** Government donor money contracted through Free Press Unlimited and booked as "various governments", plus a terminated United States grant and reader donations. No funder is named by the outlet itself.
- **Focus areas:** South Sudanese national politics and the Machar treason trial, elections and voter education, subnational violence and county governance, press freedom, humanitarian conditions, and the Sudan border regions.


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
