African Journalism: Playing an African Chord in a Cacophony, a Continental Dive through a Ugandan Path
Abstract
This paper considers as its point of departure, the pressing need to critically interrogate the true meaning of African Journalism in the ever changing world. The tenets of “an African blend of Journalism” are brought to the forefront in a pool that is filled with a diversity of journalistic forms (cacophony) that have somewhat usurped the once considered African ways of communication. Whilst Africa has for so long been considered as a tabula rasa, research in this paper points deep into the roots of journalism in Africa and how it fairs in this changing climate.
