SABC board meets - but where's Ben?
NEWSWATCH: The board of the SABC seems to be intent on going ahead with meetings even if chairman Ben Ngubane isn't present, reports IOL, and previously the Mail & Guardian said they would not apologise for publishing the cartoon that has offended Muslims - and has subsequently done just that. North of the Limpopo, meanwhile, six private newspapers have been licensed to publish, reports the UK's Times Online.
For more:
- IOL: SABC board meets without Ngubane... With or without you... all right then, without you... The SABC board apparently decides to go it alone and Ngubane says he knows nothing about any meeting. So who's the boss? Part 2.
- Mail & Guardian: M&G meets with Muslim leaders... and says 'sorry'. Here's the statement from M&G editor Nic Dawes.
Times online: New papers allowed to break Mugabe's media stranglehold... Who's line is it, anyway? It's the party line... For the past few years Zimbabweans have been fed the ZANU-PF party line via the regime's tame mouthpiece after Mugabe banned any newspaper that upset him with a home truth or two. Now Zimbabweans may be able to enjoy a balanced choice of news and views after the newly constituted independent media commission announced that it had formally licensed six new newspapers, four of them dailies, to publish in Zimbabwe. It remains to be seen how Mugabe will react.
