Bloggers to get professional training in journalism.

Bloggers will now be required to at least get a Diploma or degree in Mass Communication for them to be recognized as journalists.The Media Council of Kenya CEO, Mr.Harun Mwangi, says they have been finding it hard to deal with bloggers since they are not professional journalists. He also says that many have been misusing social media thus tarnishing the journalism profession. This move seemingly seeks to get bloggers to follow the media code of ethics and thus advocates for responsible journalism.
