What are you guys on about?
 
I agree, just arranged the interview to make them look good !
What a joke ! Nobody in their right mind will ask AWB member if he cares about hungry africans in SA.
That's a recipe for disaster ! Well done timming is perfect just before the World Cup.
 
You are the last one to talk about " They all related" Sit down and think, if you can..................

Actually I disagree - they are not as callous as you think - after all, they share the same race - homo sapiens - as Julius Malema and the rest of us. You cannot generalise and expect to be taken credibly - that was the mistake they (ETV) made IMO. He wasn't reacting to the caring about hungry africans, if anything it was the suggestion that by having his own ideals it automatically means that he doesn't care about anyone else. She was trying to make like he hates africans by being a nationalist / idealist / whateverist.

I mean, think about that logic, how much budget (tax rands) does the AWB get? How much does the ANC get? Who's to blame for poverty and hunger in SA? Perhaps it's the ones driving luxury cars while constantly blaming the past...

And he quite probably does. He certainly doesn't like Ms Pheko, though. He also threatened to walk away from the Al-Jazeera interview the other day, spent a lot of time complaining that people were interrupting him because they continued to talk while he was interrupting them, and he referred to her using terms like "the participant" (instead of, for example, "my honourable yet misinformed colleague etc, etc...).

Someone like Mr Visagie displays his buttons clearly, so Ms Pheko could hardly be blamed for pushing them. However, it's not something that anyone needs to see on national television. What Etv thought they were thinking (other than "Ooo! Ratings!" probably...) is beyond me.

But seeing as they are South Africa's equivalent to Sky News, it's not really surprising! :)
 
They would get a lot less crap and a little more respect, if they just changed their stupid flag to resemble something less nazi.

Yes, that one kind of went out with the rindepest. I suspect they don't have much budget for a graphic artist. It's not just the swaistika, it's the eagle and all that too. But then symbols, politcal ideals from all sides are why the world is such a mess IMO. Giving far too much credit to public servants while getting nothing in return.

Neither does the non-white government so shes a nice one to point the finger. After the whole R billions wasted expenditure story came out, I wonder how she feels now about accusing him. Damn hypocrite...When will these bloody people realize that poverty reigns because they voted these idiots into government? Im tired of this "blame the white man for ALL our freekin problems",this government has had 20 years to sort this country out. Get a freekin clue, stop denying the facts that they embezzle tax-payers' money (mostly WHITE taxpayers) and use it for their own good.

The wolf isnt even in sheeps clothes....the wolf is running around among the sheep but the sheep are too dumb to recognize it. Ignorance and plain stupidity is what is the biggest culprit - not the white man.

Oh P.S smalltownsky, I wasnt having a go at you :P this whole situation just infuriates me.

The AWB's secretary-general was escorted from the studio of
eNews programme Africa 360 after threatening his fellow
interviewee, political analyst Lebohang Pheko on Wednesday.

Andre Visagie, who was a guest on the prime-time news show
ripped off his microphone and threw it to the floor before storming
from the set.

He immediately returned and became embroiled in a verbal spat
with host Chris Maroleng, who came to Pheko's defence.

The argument stared when Pheko badgered Visagie about the abuse
of farm workers in South Africa, without giving him time to
respond.

Visagie, who earlier this week said the AWB would avenge its
leader Eugene Terre'Blanche's murder, a statement that was later
retracted, told Pheko not to interrupt him.

He then got up, ripped off his microphone and walked off.

When he returned and approached Pheko, pointing a finger at her,
Maroleng tried to step between them and push Visagie away.

"Don't you dare touch me in my studio," Maroleng said
repeatedly. "You'll be in trouble."

The AWB member replied: "I'll touch you in your studio."

Visagie was escorted from the set, but turned back again.
Pointing his finger at Pheko, he said: "I am not finished with
you."

Maroleng could be heard asking Visagie: "Mr Visagie, stop
threatening this woman now. Why are you threatening this woman? She
is just giving her opinion."

In a response, one viewer felt Pheko generalised the plight of
farm workers and provoked Visagie. Another sided with Pheko.

The new Social Movement Against Racist Tendencies (Smart),
founded by, among others, education department spokesman Panyaza
Lesufi, said it was not surprised by Visagie's behaviour.

"The latest outburst by the General Secretary of AWB confirms
our long held view that racists are handled with kids glove (sic)
in our country, just imagine if it was Julius Malema who behaved
like this," it said in a statement.

Smart said the media was "glorifying racists".

"Etv as been glorifying racists since the death of Eugene
Terre'Blanche and chickens have come home to roost."

Lesufi claimed Smart already had 5000 members, among them
"socialites, politicians, musicians, lawyers and professionals".

He said Smart was briefing its legal team to "urgently" lay
charges of intimidation against Visagie, as well as apply for an
urgent interdict to stop displays of the old South African flag at
Terre'Blanche's funeral in Ventersdorp on Friday.

Smart would officially be launched on 16 June, Lesufi said.

lol,how the ANC saw it.
 
if julie-ass can sing struggle songs then the awb should be allowed to fly the old south african flag.
 
Why is the presenter clinging to the AWB chappie like a five year old? Frankly I think he demonstrated considerable restraint in not popping the presenter one.
 
Well given the actions taken against reporters by their late leader it was probably a wise move trying to restrain him from hitting her.
