He's interviewed me once so I like the guy. Very nice guy compared to some of his brethren.

As for the best, thats something else. That Hussein guy on citizen can tare into any facade and he always comes prepared.

But for being a nice guy Madowo is a nice guy.

Larry is very good at what he does. He ranks up there among news anchors and presenters.

Granted my dear. An excess of 207,000 likes on his facebook page seem to agree with you.

However,look at the heading/title of this thread:


Fact: Larry Madowo is the best TV journalist

As the kids are want to say: As in, really?

Post Script:

Have you been across lately? As in really lately?

Its about age. If you do not appreciate Madowo, you are likely old and conservative. Fact, Madowo has a big following of the young. You should also notice that the Trend has slowly moved to an entertainment show and lot's of young people follow it and they like the host. Which TV station would not like to have a programme with a big following from the young people?


The "young" are not watching tv at that time and if NTV is trying to capture this market then they should change the whole structure of news attention span ya xaxa generation haiwezi ngoja mpaka 9:40pm they have already left the sitting room and have plugged in earphone kwa masikio. May be NTV should have a xaxa news segment on GTV and leave NTV for the sober mature fellas. Otherwise Betty Kyalo and Hussein Mohamed rule the wave on Friday Night


Agreed. The young ones do not watch him at all. My teenagers have a Telly in their room and only watch the Trend when they catch me watching the top 5 section.

Sorry, I did not mean teenagers. I meant a certain age above teenagers and not too old. Of course if this topic was on a teenagers blog, the topic may well have been those kiss presenters. We may not like it but Madowo has tried to be different on the screen and by doing that earning both a following and some hatred/dislike and I guess that is why we are talking about him here.

Post number one of this thread has "facts" such as:

He is the one person that any media company would want to have.

In fact he has personally turned round the fortunes of NTV by bringing in vibrancy to the once dull station.

He is in the league of Julie Gichuru, if not better.......

Not forgetting the title of course.

I have promoted my favorites on this site often but this I refuse to swallow.

That age group is busy clubbing on Friday and Saturday there's no time for news. They have just discovered alcohol and are fascinated by women. So try to think again are they really watching madowo? No. I once spoke to one of those bigmen in NTV and he told me that Kenyans (18-35) are not watching programmed tv anymore, they are watching sports or movies/seasons which they can easily get from maDVD guy.

Watu wameachia miss mboch tv that's why Citizen is big because after watching those Mexican soaps (Women) you are programmed to watch thier news
