Leral is a Senegalese media group that began in 2008 as the online news outlet Leral.net, founded by entrepreneur and technologist Dame Dieng. The brand has since grown into a multi-platform newsroom serving national and diaspora audiences with daily reporting, live talk shows and field reporting. Its television arm, Leral TV, broadcasts in French on Senegal’s digital terrestrial television and is carried on pay-TV and OTT platforms, including Canal+ across several West African markets and Orange TV in Senegal; the channel is also available via Eutelsat and on LG smart TVs. The radio division, Leral FM 96.1 in Dakar, launched in 2021 and extends to Kaolack (100.4), Touba–Mbacké (87.8) and Ziguinchor (93.1), with programming that blends news bulletins, traffic updates and community affairs. Online, the newsroom publishes a continuous stream of politics, economy, justice, culture, sport and entertainment coverage, alongside investigative pieces and interview series. Leral’s audience reach stems from its round-the-clock publishing cadence and on‑air presence, which allows major stories to move from web to TV and radio in real time. Editorial leadership has included a director of publication (Ousseynou Wade) and an editor‑in‑chief (Mame Fatou Kébé), reflecting a structure that pairs digital‑first sensibilities with broadcast production. Taken together, Leral functions as a Francophone news network built in Dakar and consumed well beyond Senegal’s borders.
