Report Review

The quality of their reporting is fine. But their judgement in regards to which news story is superior and requiring of the top spot in the site is still wanting.
As expected, there is also a bias in reporting stories that are connected with Standard as a media house. For example, there is an entire section giving every minute detail regarding former TV anchor Louis Otieno's trial, yet national news like the resignation of ICC commissioners is given a small footnote.
News articles are also duplicated all over the home page. For example, there are 4 links to the Otieno trial all visible in the same screen frame, yet the content is identical.
In a way, StandardMedia will always play second-fiddle to Nation Media
