Why does the state owned Sentech get free advevertising on morninglive news? Telkom, Sentech.... I'm sick of it!
 
Explain

Well, Sentech made the news this morning with the launch of mywireless in Nelspruit. We got to hear about how fantastic mywireless is... look ma, NO WIRES! and a fixed monthly cost - NO FEES FOR TIME ONLINE!?

Tibby dude, actually postal is the last thing I'll go... excuse me for not supporting one of the government's most inefficient services. :->
BTW I am not a government basher - but yes, i do think they abuse the system in many areas - it's time the government come clean with their stance on our communications minister. I would also like to hear the truth about the oil scandal... hmmmm.
 
Hey, it's no secret that the SABC is a government mouthpiece - it was under the previous government, so why should that change just because we're now a democracy ?

If you really want to get worried, consider the gagging of the Mail & Guardian recently over the oil scandal - now there's some food for thought.
It's a common thought amongst the countries decent journalists - those who still have their principals and integrity - that the M&G is one of the few independent papers left in this country - the bulk of the rest are controlled by huge media conglomerates.

So then Ed why do you STILL watch that morning live garbage on SABC and get upset about it ???.

I have a TV and MNET in my home but I only have it around because the kids want to watch their toons/Pixar/Disney DVD's and my wife her 7de Laan and CSI.

I don't watch any TV..
