The SABC is an SA asset & that it's being turned into a state broadcaster that serves the interests of the ruling party must be condemned

Sanef is also calling on the #SABC leadership to allow its journalists to work in a free environment that does not compromise their ethics

Literally DAILY now, for weeks, the #SABC keeps making big scandal news AS the news. That is NOT what a public broadcaster is, or should be.

Imagine spending years training as a journalist, learning all those professional skills & values, and then ending up at #SABC under #Hlaudi

Jimi Matthews steps down from SABC. On Friday I tweeted that he was one of best managers I'd ever had&it was sad to see him grovel to Hlaudi
