Dennis Okari's 'Top 100 Journalist' Rank Angers KOT
A section of KOT was angered on Thursday when news anchor, Dennis Okari was not listed among the top 10 influential journalists, on Kenyans.co.ke's compilation list. Okari's 19th position ranking devastated many, as he won the hearts of many for his investigative story, "Red Alert" earlier this month. The blog revealed that its criteria for ranking its top 100 journalists, revolved around the news personalities' expertise, and ability to set the agenda for the nation.RETWEET if you feel that Dennis Okari should have ranked higher in the #Top100JournalistsKE. pic.twitter.com/OGYKKlmzuo
