President William Ruto arrived at the White House in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, May 22, continuing his three-day historic visit to the United States.
President Joe Biden welcomed Ruto to the White House, marking a significant occasion.
Upon arrival, Ruto addressed the press and Americans alongside Biden.
However, American channels cut away from coverage immediately President Ruto began to speak.
A video compiled by CNN international correspondent Larry Madowo and shared online revealed how most prominent news channels introduced President Ruto before taking a break.
This action sparked reactions among Kenyan netizens, with some interpreting it as a form of discrimination or censorship, while others saw it as a response to Ruto’s perceived tendency to spread misinformation.

A White House fact sheet published on Thursday, May 23, indicated the key areas of the multimillion-dollar partnership, including Trade and Investment, Development, and Sustainable Finance.
The two nations signed key trade and investment projects, including the construction of the Nairobi-Mombasa Expressway, affordable housing project support, and clean energy.
