DA reports ANC to Public Protector for political interference at the SABC
7 July 2016
The DA will today report political interference at the SABC by the ANC to the Public Protector, Advocate Thuli Madonsela, for investigation.
This follows former SABC acting CEO, Jimmy Matthews’ confirmation - during an exclusive interview - that there was deliberate intervention in the editorial decisions regarding coverage for opposition political parties.
This, we believe, is at the behest of the ANC, to undermine their opponents – given the increasing pressure that they face at the polls.
Through Hlaudi Motsoeneng, the ANC has effectively captured the SABC.
