    Kenyan media could perhaps be the most liberal in the world.It is only in Kenya that every tribe has a radio station on it's name.Indeed we have so many radio and television stations that any unfolding story sinks to the bottom most part of every Kenyan.Take the example of the ongoing court cases at the Hague involving originally six Kenyans but now four.Every one of us in this country now understands impressively the operations of the international criminal court and we are thus not subject to ungodly manipulation by tribal chiefs and other cheap politicians who may want Kenyans to believe that the proceedings at the Hague are politically instigated.
    Our children too have not been left aside.Education has gone a notch higher with information being available on all subjects from our liberal media.
    The free media has also made Kenyans to become development conscious by being able to learn what other people in Kenya and the world at large are doing to better their lives
    Of course,with freedom some go too far.As such not all media houses preach the good gospel.Some are Iscariot and broadcast some material that is profane.To such we say the law of demand and supply may soon see them booking a space in the shelves of Kenya museum.
