Joe Laka Veteran Sports presenter, Joe Laka has stated that he doubts the credibility of the Radio and television Personality Awards. As his sports show kicked off on Kessben Fm and TV this morning, Joe Laka was quick to respond to a message sent by a listener asking why Kessben sports could not win an award on the 7 th edition of the RTP awards held on 28 th October 2017. Sir Joe, responded by saying; “The RTP awards started very well but now it has turned to concert. In fact they have lost their credibility." For someone who has won quite a few awards in his lifetime, this seems like a strange statement to make. Joe Laka feels that the Radio and Television Personality award is bogus. It’s known as ‘‘Radio and Television Personality Awards’’. But only rarely is the description used without irony. The award scheme has long been a hokey, try-hard event that never quite achieves the credibility, status or glamour to which it aspires. The uninspiring annual ritual is...

It is no longer news that former Fox FM presenter, Prince Adu Asare has quit his job. But the reason why he left the radio station he had worked for years is less savory than Nico openly admitted. Ray Charles Marfo can reveal that the relationship between Prince Adu Asare and head of sports at Fox FM, Rockson Agyei Yeboah went sour a few months before the former host of Fox sports (Papa Nico) dropped his resignation paper. Sources within Fox Fm said Rockson Agyei Yeboah was unhappy with Papa Nico over an undisclosed disagreement, and therefore “punished him” by sometimes refusing to address him as a member of the sports crew.

Charles Kwasi Marfo The radio industry has had a rough time recently. Radio listenership is steadily declining, radio stations are folding up, and journalists with years of experience are getting frustrated, with some even being laid off. In response, some radio stations have made considerable changes. These stations are combating diminishing listeners’ interest by using social media to their advantage. With the meteoric rise of social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, many people have claimed that we have entered a new age. It seems as if the golden age of big names in radio business doesn't matter. In this new age of technology, radio stations aren’t sure of how best to respond to many of the challenges they face today. By experimenting with different methods of keeping listeners interested, the radio industry is working tirelessly to keep broadcasting alive and make revenue. Looking Forward...

Charles Kwasi Marfo Information is power and insight can impact on public discourse.  This way, perceptions can be changed by access to media. Different types of media are utilised globally to distribute knowledge, free mass media is a tool for democracy. Freedom of expression is not only the core of a healthy media but also a fundamental human right and vital for a democratic structure.
