Good morning and welcome to Rise and Shine on Channel Africa. On The Discourse this morning, we turn our attention to the state of media in East Africa. This, as over 1,000 delegates, 120 media houses, and Africa's boldest communication innovators have gathered at the Safari Park Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya, for the landmark 2026 Annual Pan-African Media Summit (APAMS). Organised by the Media Council of Kenya, this year's summit zeroes in on a critical contemporary battleground: Information Integrity, Digital Platforms, and Media in Africa. As algorithmic landscapes shift, the surge of generative AI threatens fact-based reporting, and traditional newsrooms struggle under financial precarity, the very survival of public interest journalism is at stake. Navigating this complex terrain requires experienced newsroom leadership. To break down the key resolutions of the summit - Tsepiso Makwetla spoke to Linda Bach, Former Quality Assurance Editor at The Standard Group and CEO of the Kenya Editors Guild.
