- Guardian Liberty Voice: TV Election Ad Goes Viral on Social Media After SABC Ban... The SABC banning of a DA TV ad has been labelled "blatant censorship and probably illegal" after the TV election ad was deleted late last week.
But, reports Guardian Liberty Voice, "within 24 hours of the South African Broadcasting Company's (SABC) notice that it was removing the commercial from its airwaves, the ad went viral on social media with supporters posting the video on Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms." The report says that the DA claims that the ruling ANC is behind the ban, "and as the video increasingly goes viral, has stated the ad is making a 'big impact' on the party's election campaign."
