CharlesCNG: WHO IS WATCHING THE WATCHDOG? THE RUFAI OSENI FILES — PART 1 By CharlesCNG
I have watched Rufai Oseni for a long time.
I have watched the interruptions, political monologues masquerading as questions, assertions delivered with prosecutorial certainty, and the transformation that sometimes occurs when Rufai begins as interviewer and ends as prosecutor, witness and judge.
Yesterday morning gave me the perfect reason to stop watching and start documenting.
On Arise News’ The Morning Show, Rufai became so carried away during commentary involving Nyesom Wike and other political actors that his own senior colleague, Dr Reuben Abati, intervened LIVE ON AIR. Abati warned him about challenging people’s integrity, creating innuendo and exposing the station to lawsuits. Rufai pushed back. The exchange became heated.
Think about that. This was not a politician complaining about a hostile interview. It was a senior journalist beside Rufai effectively saying: there is a boundary here.
That moment crystallised my concern. I am not going to merely shout “Rufai is biased.” I am going to audit him.
Interview by interview. Claim by claim. Statistic by statistic. Politician by politician.
My thesis:WHAT RUFAI OSENI INCREASINGLY PRACTISES SHOULD NOT BE CONFUSED WITH REPORTORIAL JOURNALISM.
A better description may be: POLITICAL ADVOCACY BROADCASTING. Some describe him as a crass, crude and rude advocacy commentator masquerading as a neutral interrogator; others see him as a misguided, opinionated and intellectually arrogant political prosecutor with a broadcaster’s microphone.
Sean Hannity has openly called himself a talk-show host, an “advocacy journalist” and an “opinion journalist.” Whatever one thinks of Hannity, his audience knows where he stands. That honesty matters.
My problem with Rufai is not that he has opinions. It is what happens when advocacy puts on the clothes of neutral journalism.
Rufai increasingly resembles a referee who enters the pitch with the whistle around his neck — and then starts taking penalties for one team.
He wants the authority of the interviewer, the freedom of the commentator and the aggression of the advocate.
This series will test one question: DOES THE JOURNALISM CHANGE WHEN THE POLITICIAN CHANGES?
Tinubu. Obi. Atiku. Wike. APC. PDP. ADC. Same microphone. Same evidentiary standard?
If Rufai passes, I will say so. If he does not, the evidence will speak. Because an audit incapable of acquitting its subject is propaganda.
Yesterday, the watchdog had to be checked by another watchdog. That is where we begin.
NEXT: WHEN JOURNALISM BECOMES “INFLUENCISM” — WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE BROADCASTER BECOMES THE PRODUCT?
WHO IS WATCHING THE WATCHDOG?
