Any government heavily influences the media on how stories are reported. Journalists at the best of times have their own agenda anyway!
Can't argue with that but I'm sure you'll agree the BBC for instance is far more impartial than the SABC.

I was having supper last night with a young Congelese student, and a South African Zulu student. To them the ANC is as corrupt as the Metro Police... and the corruption comes from the highest level of government in SA. That was their opinion.
SABC has never been impartial, I mean now what does it mean to be half a commercial and half a public broadcaster????
yes Wizard i acknowledge corruption is a problem, i just think insulting them is not going to create pressure for them to change their ways. obviously if they r corrupt they should vacate their positions but the reality is that they are not getting enough pressure to be ousted!
They are crooks stealing from the people who need it most. A crime in my opinion up there with rape and murder. They are not hurting one person, they are hurting a whole people. I apologise for my complete lack of respect, but I have none for people like that.
Compulsory monthly lie detector tests for all politicians!!!
I wonder why this is funny?they will fail it even B4 they get into office![]()
Except I assume iMonga is a black brother. Why would (he) assume being kept in the ghetto is alright?
What I'm not getting is why is iMonga okay with this? (The fact that people put in place spent their budgets on salaries, fancy cars; or otherwise squandered it, when they should have been creating jobs and laying roads.) Why does he gleefully accept this (to his detriment?)What has the statement got to do with being kept in the ghetto? Most of our politicians are at the very least as self-centered as a gyroscope. A lot of them are dishonest. If your understanding of the implication is that no "brothers from the ghetto" should be allowed to take office, then you need to understand that the problem is not people of humble origins, it's dishonest people working through a crony system.

(I don't question the origin of anybody, simply the performance of duty.)
For some reason, black people regard themselves as belonging to one big family. I think that is the inference.what is a black brother?

Don't ask me to explain more ... it's all very silly and discriminatory.
Black Brothers? Are you talking about African Americans or Black South Africans? If u r referring to South Africans, better ask me or other black members in these forums rather than make silly, general assumptions and conclusions about us. One big family for black people? Gosh, this idea is very silly.
Yeah, you should hang a sign (I'm black!).Black Brothers? Are you talking about African Americans or Black South Africans?

Ah, the obsessional arise.
What gives you that impression? I treat people as I find them. I also don't discriminate (+ or -). You sound like you're used to people treating you differently.You really have a problem with Black People don't you?
