  • The Politics of Impunity and the Shifting Media Landscape in Kenya
    Athens Journal of Mass Media and Communications- Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2021 – Pages 61-78 The Politics of Impunity and the Shifting Media Landscape in Kenya By Philip Onguny This article focuses on state-media relations and the shifts in the overall media landscape in Kenya. Drawing on a political economy approach to media operations in Kenya, it argues that while there are competing meanings over what constitutes "news values", "editorial independence", and "critical media", changes in political regimes and unclear media regulations contribute to political and/or corporate interference on media coverage of corruption and political impunity. This renders media operations problematic at the normative and operational levels. The discussion situates these arguments within the contexts of "policy laundering" and "critical junctures", seeking to establish whether the shifting media landscape is a function of increased information and communication affordability or, instead, an indication that critical media are on the decline. Overall, the article provides an assessment of key temporal periods that have shaped media regulatory frameworks to show how political and/or corporate interests have influenced journalistic practices and editorial independence over time and space. Keywords: Kenyan media, media regulations, editorial independence, political impunity, policy laundering, safety of journalists, critical junctures Introduction Kenya has been perceived as one of the few African countries with a "pluralist" media, somewhat related to conditions under which media outlets operate. For instance, a recent report by Reporters Without Borders (2018) ranks Kenya 96th (out of 180 countries) on World Press Freedom Index, a 4-point improvement from 20151. However, according to the 2019 Corruption Perception Index by Transparency International, Kenya scores 28 out of 100 which highlights the slow progress in fighting corruption2.

J Armed cadets motion passengers from the plane to a beige-green bus marked National Youth Service. We sit cramped together, luggage on laps. To our right, a steel wall barricades the main airport building gutted by fire. Our driver, in a beret and green army fatigues, weaves through the pitch black before pulling up at a multi-story car park that’s serving as the makeshift arrivals hall. Soldiers usher us to immigration gates where ticket machines stood a few months ago. I head to “Foreign Visitors” until I feel a tug at my arm. “This officer is a friend of mine.” My impromptu guide jumps me through the “Kenyan Citizens” line and fires a meaningful nod at the olive-uniformed guard. He asks me the purpose of my visit but before I can say “business” my passport is stamped and I’m through. My new-found friend sat next to me on the plane. He was a candidate in the 2013 election for a ward in Nakuru, Kenya’s third largest city after Nairobi and Mombasa. He lost the election but became the assistant to the winning MP, a mate of his. As we wait half an hour in the four parking rows that make up baggage reclaim, he shows me one of his three mobile phones.

J. Media Commun. Stud., Double –Blind Peer Reviewed Journal Problematising News Media Ownership Patterns in Kenya: Who Controls Media Industry in the Global South? Michael Otieno Otieno1; Michael M. Ndonye2 1Media Scholar, Egerton University, Kenya 2Lecturer, Kabarak University, Kenya Corresponding author email [email protected] Abstract The main aim of this paper is to investigate media ownership patterns and analyse the implications of such patterns in Kenya—while thinking globally. Notably, media industry has attracted politicians and business tycoons around the world. It is one of the most lucrative industries that come with a lot of power and influence. From the literature reviewed in this analysis, it is evident that very few studies have been done to critically look at the media ownership patterns in Kenya and the implications such ownership have in the media market place. The paper is aimed at answering three questions. 1) What has been the media ownership pattern in Kenya since independence? 2) What does media ownership patterns mean to the Kenyan Media industry? 3) How does this pattern in Kenya compare to the rest of the world? Analysis from this research seems to demonstrate that most media outlets in Kenya are either politically owned or have some political agenda attached to them. As a result of such pattern, the Kenyan media experience narrow content and lack of alternative viewpoint of news and information disseminated to the public.
