Kevin C. Mudavadi studies journalism, media, and communication with a focus on African contexts, particularly Kenya and Senegal. Much of the work examines how misinformation and "fake news" spread, how the public and journalists respond to it, and how generative artificial intelligence (AI) is being used and taught in newsrooms and journalism education. Other topics include journalists' working conditions, media literacy, and how news coverage shapes public perception.
