As I observe in my <A HREF="http://gathara.blogspot.com/2007/09/ass-covering-manoeuvers.html" REL="nofollow">post</A> on the subject: "It is surely inconceivable that none of our investigative journalists was aware of the existence of this report. That we had to wait 3 years for an anonymous leak on the internet is an indictment of the laxity with which the Kenyan media approaches its function of keeping the citizenry informed."Gatharahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05615274760892257015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9317825.post-36479354350894789512007-09-03T03:31:00.000+03:002007-09-03T03:31:00.000+03:00Yeah, the Standard's black-out of the story was am...Yeah, the <I>Standard</I>'s black-out of the story was amazing.Cirdanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161072165681849178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9317825.post-57693412198988668192007-09-02T12:24:00.000+03:002007-09-02T12:24:00.000+03:00The Standard ignored this.
