Media owners protest move to withdraw digital license

Kenya: Three independent and top Kenya's television broadcasters were last night fighting back State action to withdraw their license for digital broadcasting which could pull them off air and bring to ruin their estimated Sh40 billion investment in technical infrastructure alone.

The Standard Group (KTN), Nation Media Group (NTV) and the Royal Media Services (Citizen), daily companions of Kenyans in their living rooms, offices and social places, vowed to move to court to challenge the punitive action by the Communication Authority of Kenya (CAK) that include ban to import own set boxes.
