To accuse @Mukiha of one sided reporting is unfair.What was he to do,drop all else and rush to fish for the other side of the story?come on. In instances such as this,you always find yourself backing the underdog.For sure,they must have struck a deal,which of course went awry.Shame on KTN,they didn't even acknowledge the fact,when the clip aired.

mr tea - My point is that given that the story he heard was from only one of the parties then the posting here should not have been categorical and unequivocal as it was. It should have been qualified.

muhkiha - I get you point on what you wanted to achieve by taking the line you took (not that I agree with it). And it is indeed true that there are several sides to each story. Though going from my opinion on your posts in sk,you strike me as always objective and that leads me to suspect that there may be more facts to the story within your knowledge than you are telling us.

I am not holding brief for ktn or the standard group. In fact I would not be surprised if indeed the complaints are true. I know for a fact that several of their standard newspaper writers do copy and paste work of others' work on their articles.

With all the new digital technology and rivalry in the media it should be possible to make video/audio content say on a CD or digital tape inaccessible till the owner 'unlocks' it as in logging in to your laptop?

Kamaa,check page 2 todays Standard,it's stuff out of Reality TV,a shocking escape from certain death by a random kid watching the Kajiado rally when a rally car hits a bump,veers off the road and hits a bunker,flying in the air into a tree. The clip captures the whole scene,with the lucy boy seen jumping away with the car right on top of him. This is stuff you can actually sell to those reality progis for what I believe would be a small fortune
