Most Kenyan Journalists lie. Some go a step further and craftily construct damnable lies. But the most pernicious are the lies one Julie Gichuru is accused of . Like statistics, they’re often used to bolster weak arguments and obfuscate reality when it dares infiltrate preconceived notions.
Curiously, none of the Kenyan Journalists has never been criticized by Kenyans . Some have gone to an extent of insulting Kenyans when they criticize them confirming that the Kenyan media is now filled with adolescent Journalists who cannot swallow the bitter pill of criticism .
