    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving a chance to contribute to this Motion. From the outset, I would like to congratulate Kenyans because Kenya is one of the very few countries where we have a media which is self-sustaining. Many countries have a single journal and radio station. Right from the time when the media was opened up, there has been considerable investment in that sector and they are largely self-sustaining. How do they sustain themselves financially? They sustain themselves through two fundamental sources. One, of course, is 2186 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July 3, 2007 advertising revenue from the advertisements that they receive. Secondly, they sustain themselves from the copy sales, in the case of print media and so on. But, ultimately, it all depends on the circulation; how many readers does a newspaper enjoy? It also depends on the listenership of the radio station and viewership of any television station."
