The Standard Digital Reviews Summary

The company's reputation is characterized by a solid quality of reporting, with customers acknowledging the competence of the content produced. However, there are notable concerns regarding editorial judgment and the prioritization of news stories, leading to perceptions of bias and redundancy in coverage. Customers feel that significant national events are often overshadowed by less critical stories, which diminishes the overall credibility of the media outlet. This suggests a need for improved editorial decision-making to enhance customer satisfaction and trust in the company's news priorities.

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
