Africa Media Matters speaks to the World Bank’s Eric Chinje about the challenges facing African media in the age of the internet, and we profile the work of Mogadishu-based Radio Shabelle, recent winners of the Reporters Sans Frontiere's Press Freedom Award. We also hear from Sudanese Diaspora station, Radio Dabanga, as the country prepared for the independence referendum, as well as Godfrey Odongo of Amnesty International in Uganda on the storm around the outing of homosexuals in the national press, and Chris Swepu of the Pan South African Language Board discusses the significance of South Africa’s first national newspaper to launch a Zulu-language edition.
