Media IS BUSINESS first and foremost!
'He who controls the media, controls the propaganda'.
No to so-called 'freedom of the press' in Africa!
Put them out of business for sure, all the gossip mongers and tools of Africa's enemies.
Instead of acting constructively to inform and educate Africans for the good of Africans, the media morons spread divisiveness and gossip in order to assist the African destabilization and domination coming from their racist foreign masters.
Every African government should maintain a firm grip on the gossip mongers in the media. The media morons work not for Africans. The media morons work for the historical enemies who fund their divisive and destructive enterprise.
