Compromised Icasa toothless against SABC

Icasa is a systemic failure in exactly the same way the SABC is a systemic failure

I'm not sure why we even bother with the SABC, just have a look at their quality broadcasts here

ROFL @ Lazy
Class-sick!
Do you perhaps have a collection of these?

In some cases the limits on advertising — 12 minutes an hour — were not complied with.

12 minutes an hour. Bwaaaahahahahaha! Was that EVER complied with?

Sadly no, I moved my stash to the "City of Tshwane" and that has fallen by the wayside too

They are not alone though. I recall a time when MNet hardly had any adverts. I don't mean during movies, I mean in general, there would be 2 adds during a break and that's it. Then it all changed, anyone remember this, MNet used to broadcast Friends (on a friday night if I recall correctly) and the broadcast used to be an hour long! Later, they broadcast it in a 30 minute slot which STILL had adverts!

MNet: Fail
SABC: EPIC Fail

Well this disaster that is the SABC has just highlighted how ineffective parastatals are; and how useless ICASA is.

Telkom, Eskom, Transnet, SABC and SAA. Yeah, way to go ANC!

Very insightful article. Really calls ICASA for what it is... a dismal failure and a shocking waste of tax payers money.

Drag them out into the street and put them out of their misery. These people are obviously unemployable!
