@jagger, when it comes to interviewing, I think Citizen's Chamwada is best. Hussein is coming up well too. As i told u, it's hard to get consensus on these things. People today are debating whether Chinua Achebe was a great writer, that's how hard it is to get everyone pleased!

I think he is above average compared to the rest,however, I prefer the news presented by Hussein Mohammed or Victoria Rubadiri smile any day.

Larry is excellent in casual talks, reporting from the scenes and interviews and that's why he does a great job on the Trend.

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

You have a point there. Age that is.

When they "do" the Trend, I am on BBC. If I am going to listen to English, then I might as well as listen to The English.

The "youth" are not on the Trend, they are on KissTV. I noticed this because my eighteen year old daughter and her "friends" are permanently there and as you may have noticed, KissTV's current catch phrase is that "it ain't your mama's station."

Madondo is just overated according to me. Yes he is good but not upto the level guys put him.

He might be gud in making news lively but he totally overdoes it and ends up talking a lot of irrelevant things.

As for the trend, methinks that he has a catching but not for youth coz after all how many young guys watch TV on furahiday and if they do most of them are in KissTv and Bundesliga etc.

I remember during Uhunye's inauguration he tried to woo various guys in state house to come in the Trend and he sort of said it very confidently as if every Kenyan follows it but most of them were like ' What is The Trend?'

But all in all, you can never please everyone coz even they are people who like listening to Mutegi but Larry cant be the best in an industry where Hussein, Jeff and the likes are present.
