[kictanet] [ke-internetusers] Yes we should celebrate CCK?

[Walubengo J]

eh Wainaina,

I know CCK may have its blunders, but I want to believe the day they shutdown Citizen- that was NOT one of them. Citizen was actually bullying the competition - with impunity.

CCK had to clamp down on them.  At least until when Citizen pulled its weight from elsewhere...

walu.

I recall the day CCK shut down Citizen Radio and TV. There were
protests online and offline. CCK has come a long way, and for that, I
dance a little.

Although we may have CCK cocktail hangovers ;-) we shouldn't confuse
improvement with perfection. The party is now over - but the journey
is far from over. It's time to get back to work.
