  4. Country Research Report Sample Cites in Text • Even the use of the press for national development was poorly executed: ‘In declared policies concerning mass communication, Tanzania [was] quite an advanced case—it [was] theimplementation that [was] lacking’ (Kivikuru, 1989, p.118, italics in original). • Additionally, in the politics of these pre-democratic societies, the press was often used as a tool in political infighting between different factions(Scannell, 1995). As a result, ‘Tanzania emerged as a nation, but without a press of its own’ (Ng’wanakilala, 1981, p. 17).
