A Book Review - I Accuse The Press: An Insider's View Of The Media And Politics In Africa by Philip Ochieng

Philip Ochieng is a Kenyan journalist and editor who has really put an imprint on the media profession in the region. This book comes straight from his heart, and he accuses both Western organizations and his own profession for hindering development in Africa. He is open-minded and pragmatic in his approach, for instance when it comes to private or governmental ownership of the media. Foremost, the book is a sharp and well written criticism from a man who speaks from his own experience and shares many stories underway.
