Online Media Outshines Mainstream Media in Kenya

FIPP English

Blue Radio, a digital station founded by journalism graduates in Mombasa, uses online radio, podcasts and social media to promote blue-economy education, community participation and entertainment. Its growth reflects Kenya's rapidly expanding digital-media market, where social-media use has tripled since 2014 and mobile connectivity dominates. The station also provides opportunities for local talent, including former gang member Omondi Obunga, and illustrates how online media can support youth employment and social reintegration. Kenyan media professionals argue that traditional outlets must adapt to digital production, remote work and online advertising rather than treating new media as a threat. The Media Council of Kenya is likewise urging journalists to modernize reporting and content distribution while supporting a healthier media ecosystem.
