MORE EFFORTS NEEDED TO MOVE THE MEDIA TO THE NEXT LEVEL

The Media High Council (MHC) released a report on Friday that shows the state of the Media for the year 2008. This is the latest report by the MHC on the state of the media in the country. The report indicates that generally, the media is improving. A number of issues that are said to impede media progress are highlighted in the report. It will be recalled that the media in Rwanda has had a tumultuous history, with a number of journalists standing accused of propagating hate and hence inciting people to participate in the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
