Even with ever advancing technology that continues to disrupt the way we do things, the media remains an integral part of our daily lives; playing a vital role in shaping our perspectives, informing us about current events, and influencing societal norms.
From traditional platforms such as television, radio, and newspapers to modern digital media outlets, the media has a significant impact on individuals and society as a whole.
I today represented our media house, MILLENNIUM MEDIA SERVICES (K) LIMITED & Radio Mikayi during the first day of the two days Roundtable Engagement Forum- Western & Nyanza Region convened by the industry regulator Communications Authority of Kenya at Ciala Resort -Kisumu.
On its part, the CA urged the media managers to uphold and adhere to the Programming Code for Broadcasting Services whose latest edition (4th Ed) was released in early April this year.
The media on the other hand urged the authority to review some of its compliance requirements to be more fair to all industry players rather than punitive.
The 2 day event that drew media managers and producers from the lake region counties of Siaya, Homa Bay, Kakamega, Kisumu, Migori, Nyamira and Kisii is expected to end tomorrow.
