The Foreign Correspondents Of East Africa Association Complain Of Online Abuse From Kenyans, Get Trolled Even Further

The Foreign Correspondents Of East Africa on Wednesday night released a statement complaining of online attacks from Kenyans on social media regarding their coverage on the unfortunate Riverside Drive terror attack.

According to the association, attacks on Kimiko de Freytas-tamura after her employer, the New York Times, used photos of dead Kenyans from the scene when reporting, were unwarranted.

As the association expected an apology from Kenyans, they were hit by a rude shock of even more trolls from Kenyans and louder calls for the deportation of the New York Times correspondent.
