What is an average Kenyan radio journo to do? These people play music and mouth inanities all day and deep down want to change the public perception that they're airheads.So,they try to appear cerebral and simply confirm what we have known all along.
That they're average in all ways-mentally and morally.

Who's making the loudest noise? Kenyan men.
Majority do not have the slightest clue abt that article.
To be honest neither do I cz I never read some blogs.
But seeing the hate speech projected towards her make me wonder,why the bitterness.
What did she do to kenyan men?
They will never speak positive of her even if she educates 100 orphans.(nt saying she is) but seems as if any negative aspect presents the perfect opportunity to lash out and crucify her properly.

She did wrong.
But that is just an opportunity for people to let out stress, bitterness and anger.
calm down kenyan men.





Ala! Now you are bringing in a new twist. It is not just men who think this is not right.....
Here is what,you do not spend time lecturing people about what is right and wrong and then turn around and COPY an article,post it on your column and feel OK about that.That is why she is being called out on it;i believe partly because of the high horse that she rides and then because she is a professional who should know better.

That said,i think Carol has done great for her country,she may have a few missteps( like we all do)but there is a lot of good in her....

The author of that article wrote to The Star and the management apologized and yanked the article.

So why can't the same Star ask her to shut up and stop making references to that article?
This is not about the article anymore.
She's fighting back her haters and that is plain silly cz some people are idle and love engaging in a war of words.
She being a known personality needs to handle this with wisdom rather than engage her fans in exchange.
Somebody in her circle needs to tell her that but seems as if they are all blind.
smh.

Essyk,it would be a good idea to share with us how you came to the conclusion that kenyan men are making the most noise.Despite all her good deeds,it does not give her a license to infringe on intellectual property rights which as alma has put it in polite language is stealing.

@ Mawinder.
Please don't get me wrong.I said she did wrong.
It's Criminal what she did no matter how hard she tries to sugar coat it.
But look at the venom being spit out.
It's not about the article anymore but bitterness and anger.
The name Caro Mutoko seems to stir up bad emotions in men.I could be wrong but again it's just opinion based on online remarks in teh past and now.
Why would anybody call her a childless middle aged woman yet she has a baby girl called Nduku?
Where does her personal life and the article meet?
Aren't we the same people bashing the safcom board for bringing Bob's personal life into the Boardroom?
I am the type who looks for positive things in people.
I once hated caro but I discovered I was hating on her because people were talking ill of her.
I thought she was a ball of steel.Unbreakable.

But as a female I know that there's is a soft lil girl in every tough woman including MK even the late Maathai.
I think we react to the tough personality and judge it harshly, but I guess she does that on purpose.Again I could be wrong.

That aside,I agree with what Famooz said.

TO WHOM MUCH IS GIVEN MUCH IS REQUIRED.
That's my daily song.

But again,do professionals in Kenya act professional? Esp Media??
Run a quick scan and search for intergrity and etiquitte and rate.The stats may cause server to stop working so lets not even go there.

Caro must be aware that she represents a whole media house so she needs to stop talking since the management already sorted this mess.
A company's intergrity is dragged through mud with every word spoken.
I recommend a spokeman.

I hope you remember docs are still on strike so plz try not to choke on your bile.Average?? Morning show presenters are among the most witty and creative people i know.When stations are recruiting an "average" person would not last 5min in an interview.You're the kind of people carol should ignore but i think by now we have all crossed the line so far to the extent we do not remember there being a line...

It is people like Carol who have created a very big industry of copyrighting and non-disclosure agreements.

Those of you who work in offices know of this fellow or gal in your office who takes your idea and takes it to the boss pretending that its theirs.

That is what Carol has done. She stole someone's idea, copied it word for word and pretended it is hers. Worse,she says she does that every time.

It raises a few questions:

How many of her colleagues ideas has she "copied"?
Does she have an original idea in her bones?

But that is none of my business. Like she said only maids, drunks and watchmen listen to her show as she steals the ideas from them.

I'm more concerned about young coders like Masukuma who believe that is how life works. No wonder all the applications from iHub have something to do with M-pesa...Even their names, M-soko, M-gari etc.

When you have a country of copycats, you have a country of dunderheads. Obviously they have a champion in this lady.

Copying is stealing. PERIOD.

She should have apologised and let it rest.

I love arrogant people and to some extent think they are very sexy.

But in this case, hii chinda yote is because she called her listeners watchies and maids and they aren't taking that lying down. heheLaughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Mutoko should find out why she is hated and work on it coz there are so many presenters but none attracts the kind of venom Mutoko attracts.

this business of intellectual property is a self defeating idea that we have been indoctrinated with - We should not care about such things, tuko down and its our way getting back at the owners, I actually don't recognize 'IP', I always encourage people to use proprietary software but never to buy such. Currently on my PC i have software products that would have cost over $50k - AND I AM PROUD OF IT. its my way of getting back to those thieves that have been robbing our continent for centuries - first it was labour then it came to raw materials.

Raise up your hand if you have never been guilty of plagiarism.
Any clean media house? But we know how to cover it up.
Do our kids with access to internet 24/7 understand what that is cz it sounds like Plague.
Teach it in primary school and take action where necessary to avoid embarrassments.
Good day.
