Motsoeneng's bullyboy tactics will not deter us
30 November 2014
Hlaudi Motsoeneng has sent a threatening letter to the DA after we published internal SABC communication that revealed Chairperson Ellen Tshabalala had extended Motsoeneng's powers to act as the CEO.
Motsoeneng's letter accuses the DA of illegally obtaining confidential SABC documents and "condoning the misconduct by some SABC employees who continue to steal information from the SABC." He argues that this is compromising "the operations and successful running of the SABC."
Motsoeneng ends by requesting the DA to "immediately desist from the actions mentioned above as your practice is very disruptive to the day-to-day smooth running of the SABC which places the SABC name and its employees in disrepute."
This is deeply ironic considering Motsoeneng's track record of compromising the operations of the SABC and bringing its name into disrepute.
