The only problem is they use all our taxes everywhere else on the other SOE there is no more money to plugg the holes

Not making a moerse profit I can understand (no SOE should be making a profit) but to make a loss? HOW? How is it possible?

Big loss for the SABC

The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) tabled its 2018/19 annual report in Parliament which revealed a net loss of R482.4 million.

The main contributors to this net loss, the SABC said, were losses incurred on sporting events and interest incurred as a result of the liquidity constraints.

I guess a couple of comrades are round 400 mil richer this Christmas.

 

[Yskasmetnstoof]

Shouldn't sporting events coverage be profitable, with ads and such? Or is it sports few watch, so ads cannot be expensive enough to be profitable?

As I understand it if that Cloudy fool and the corrupt ones at another pay channel did not sink the digital and encrypted move, they could have resold the rugby WC on a pay per view basis and at the same time enabled more fans to see the Boks play ( and lose) and made quite a bit. South Africa, where greed and incompetence meet.

Sell it.
Close it down.
There is no need for it.
Maybe people will start reading again.

You're a huge optimist. They'll drink more. And moer each other.

We've known about this for months now. Why is it coming up again ?

 

[ponder]

They need to sell it

What do they have to offer?

There are still plenty of pension money.

Employ much more people than you need.

 

[SauRoNZA]

Employ much more people than you need.

Oh I do know why or how it's a **** up, just that it should be almost impossible.

Sit dit af! Sit dit af!
