Long Description:
The sequence of events is undeniable: A Citizen TV exposé airs, public outrage erupts, and the DCI suddenly finds new momentum in a stalled murder investigation of suspect Jumaisi. This is a textbook example of journalism acting as the fourth estate, holding power to account.
The Media Lens Kenya presents the Investigative Journalism Impact Report (IJIR): The Jumaisi Case Study. This report is not just about the crime; it’s about the power of information. We deconstruct how a single broadcast can shake the foundations of bureaucratic inertia and force accountability in a way that quiet diplomacy often fails to achieve.
This report serves as a crucial tool for understanding the tangible value of a free and bold press in a democracy. It provides media houses with a compelling case for investing in investigative units and offers citizens a clear look at how journalism works on their behalf. Understand the mechanics of how news creates change. Download the IJIR Jumaisi Case Study today.
