Yes they went too far considering the "damage" had already been done. A verbal warning would have sufficed. A suspension sound a tad too high handed and is bound to scare lots of journalist to toe the line...

NMG is a partisan rag.  It has been that way for a while.  In these days of social media, they are not the thought shapers they used to be.

There is no "too far" to me in being critical of any official in government. This is how it starts and soon everything the government does is rubber stamped. 30 yrs later everyone will be paying for it. Seems like Kenya has followed the North Korea route when it comes to lynchng any critic, whether it be a minor criticism.
