CNN's African correspondent, Larry Madowo, stirred up considerable chatter by posting a photo of himself while delivering live reports from his Nairobi office.
The provocative media figure chose to wear a snug pair of shorts paired with a shirt and a coat, creating a distinctive ensemble for his television appearance.
Turning to social media, he accompanied his post with the caption, "Unseen on TV." This suggests that he enjoys the freedom to choose his attire from the waist downward while maintaining a fairly sophisticated appearance from the waist up, considering the camera's focus on his facial features.
While this is not the initial instance of Larry Madowo sharing such snapshots online, online users perceive his Wednesday upload as slightly more daring than usual.
Here are some reactions from netizens;

SIMON N. ANGATIA: I have been wondering why your videos, when reporting from Nairobi, always have the same background. Now I know! But you are not alone in this; we all do this during online meeting
