Joe Ageyo's prophecy on media shutdown 3years ago has come to pass...

Except;

"First, let me explain a basic difference between analogue and digital systems that has direct implications for freedom. Under the analogue system, every broadcaster established and maintained its own transmission infrastructure. This means that if NTV had a problem with its transmitter in Limuru, KTN would still be on air. In the same breath if Artur brothers raided the KTN studios and switched off the station, KBC would still continue with its normal broadcasts. Under the digital system however, all the channels give up their signal distribution function and simply hand over their content to a licenced signal distributor for onward transmission to the viewer.

This is a great thing because it is a more efficient use of the precious commodity known as frequencies and it reduces the cost of setting up a TV channel, among other potential benefits. But the devil lies is in the detail. Because this signal distributor carries all of television in the country, care must always be taken to ensure the independence of such a body.


In Kenya that onerous task of distributing the signals of all channels, currently lies with just two companies. One is Signet, that is owned by the State Broadcaster, KBC. The second is PANG, a wholly-Chinese company (although latest indications suggest that it has some faceless Kenyan shareholders). And that, according to me, is where the real danger lies. The Communications Authority has not lost a moment to declare to the world that digital migration has brought on board more than 50+ channels to viewers who had only 10 or so before.

What CA does not say however, is the fact that all these channels can be controlled from two central locations – one at KBC (which is fully in government’s control) and the other at PANG (China of course doesn’t have a great reputation when it comes to media freedom.). So on the day that any one of these channels decides to air something that is extremely critical of the government of the day, what guarantees are there that the signal won’t be scrambled or pulled down altogether? This is not far-fetched in a country where media houses have been raided in order to stall publication of critical stories. The number of calls editors get from government functionaries any time a hard-hitting investigative piece is about to air also suggests that these officials would do more than just ask questions if they had the power to switch off a channel."

This is very true and I know to survive in the media business today is not business as usual. 

Instead of focusing on politricks, claiming it sells why not wake to the call of disruption. 

We have all lost government business across many sectors, many bills remain unpaid in public procurement, now it's time to create new value propositions to the undeserved or new relevant content.

If you check the Google search statistics on top Kenyan user searches, that would provide a pointer on some content areas worth airtime with relevant local context. 

By the way,  why is KTN HOME still broadcasting? Because they focus is on family entertainment? I am sure several others are on air. 

Wake up call to your mainstream media houses producers? Over emphasis on politricks especially during the news hours will eventually cost the media.

​Let me give a bit of background on why media owners may be taking the quiet road on this one. After President Uhuru Kenyatta was sworn in in 2013, and thereafter he named his cabinet, the Ministry of information moved forward with an idea that had been floating around for a while. To streamline government spending on advertising and several associated areas under one body. Meant to create synergy through bulk and then save government money, the ​move saw government then channel all advertising cash through the Government Advertising Agency.

Between January and April of 2016, this body billed just over a cool ksh.4B.

Then they moved a step further and created the 'My Gov' pullout which initially ran in the two national dailies, plus the people and the star. Henceforth all government advertising apart from very critical adverts were channel into this project with the news being delivered by the Kenya News Agency. The ministry then pays one of the newspapers to print and distribute as a pullout.

Needless to say, over this period, advertising revenue has shrunk dramatically to the point of crippling operations in some newsrooms. To turn the screws even further, the Ministry has then stopped printing and publishing this pullout regularly but is now doing so in 'random' fashion on a weekly basis in any of the said newspapers. The last I saw it was in the Star Newspaper.

While no doubt the above move has helped with government austerity, the media is having to tighten its belt tighter every day. (Not that anyone owes us anything)
From a team of ten just five years ago, I often have to work with just one person and maybe an intern to deliver hours of news. (and companies, like our are all looking to shrink their traditional businesses).

When you mix the above issues with the general corporate governance issues that majority of the Kenyan economy faces, there is cause for worry. And while companies are indeed innovating in order to stay relevant, I daresay the level of attrition is way faster.

Then through in lack of depth, lack of experience (because inexperience is easier to hire and pay) and the rise of fake news and you have a melting pot that should have everyone worried.

And while I agree with Ali Hussein that our diligence will eventually pay off, I fear for the hordes of millennials who may not be as patient. 

In closing, very few companies are willing to take on Government, or even larger corporates like Safaricom anymore

Good morning,


My conundrum for the day.


I work for KTN NEWS
I had scheduled two interviews today afternoon.

One on modern commercial large scale farming and another on T-vet (Technical and Vocational Education and Training) and youth.


Being off air on most platforms and under government shutdown, one of my interviewees, parastatal Chief, no less, has developed cold feet and cancelled or postponed. He is not sure how to behave and whether his turning up would be misconstrued. (Two weeks of work out of the window).



My second interviewee, a focused and passionate lady PS. we have been planning and cancelling for 3 months now. When I last got her into studio, what was supposed to be a one hour insightful discussion was interrupted by a presidential rally by the current President. She got just 3 minutes on TV for her trouble and left veeeery angry.


After much haggling, we finally rescheduled. AND THEN YESTERDAY HAPPENED. Despite the switch off her handlers insist we keep our end of the bargain.

If I host her, will I still be 'kow towing' to the same government that is trying to literally throttle my bread and butter ( if I may borrow from two expressions).


For both them and I, there is a lacuna on how to behave in these instances.


And yet, my audience still needs to be educated and entertained. Oh what interesting times we live in.

The rising power of Facebook, Google and Twitter and their opportunistic business models.


I can directly correlate the challenges that the world media is facing to these corporations. They have basically invalidated the current media company model in such a way that they sell content that they do not produce themselves and to sweeten the deal further - they do not have to pay for any operator licenses.They need to be classified as media companies - at the very least.


​That is why you see our media here being so desperate to the point that they almost have no choice but to cooperate with the government because it is the biggest source of their revenue​.


Next in line to be cannibalized is the Telecom industry bu this is a discussion for another day.


On another note, it is shameful for Kenya to be mentioned with the below countries, and in such a context. Does anyone have specific information on what the Soros foundation is doing in Kenya.

​That leaves the local battlegrounds in Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia. My foundations are actively engaged in all of them. We are particularly focused on Africa, where would-be dictators in Kenya, Zimbabwe and the Democratic Republic of Congo have perpetrated electoral fraud on an unprecedented scale and citizens are literally risking their lives to resist the slide into dictatorship.​

The IT monopolies

I want to spend the bulk of my remaining time on another global problem: the rise and monopolistic behavior of the giant IT platform companies. These companies have often played an innovative and liberating role. But as Facebook and Google have grown into ever more powerful monopolies, they have become obstacles to innovation, and they have caused a variety of problems of which we are only now beginning to become aware.

Companies earn their profits by exploiting their environment. Mining and oil companies exploit the physical environment; social media companies exploit the social environment. This is particularly nefarious because social media companies influence how people think and behave without them even being aware of it. This has far-reaching adverse consequences on the functioning of democracy, particularly on the integrity of elections.


Might it be possible to replace with TV companies, aka broadcasters

*Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, It knows it must run faster
than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up,
it knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It
doesn't matter whether you are a gazelle or a lion. When the sun comes up,
you better start running. - In "The World is Flat" by Thomas L. Friedman.*
