Political journos complain to boss about ANCYL spokesman
In an unprecedented move, 19 of the most influential political journalists in the country have lodged a complaint with the ANC proper about what they call spin man Floyd Shivambu's unethical behaviour, threats, bullying - and supposed access to information he can't legally obtain.
Wherever Julius Malema goes, Shivambu is never far off. But while Malema crosses the line in comments about women in general and opposition politicians in particular, Shivambu goes after journalists. Individually.
The 19 journalists complaining against the ANC Youth League are:
- Business Day: Karima Brown, Wilson Johwa
- Independent Newspapers: Moshoeshoe Monare, Gaye Davis, Xolani Mbanjwa and Carien du Plessis
- Mail & Guardian: Rapule Tabane and Mandy Rossouw
- The Times/ Sunday Times: Moipone Malefane, Sthembiso Msomi and Nkululeko Ncana
- 702: Stephen Grootes
- City Press: Moffet Mofokeng, Piet Rampedi, Dumisane Lubisi, Japhet Ncube and George Matlala
- Media24: Chandre Prince
- eNews: Hajra Omarjee
