Survé serves up a storm
NEWSWATCH: Iqbal Survé, who describes himself as "fearless" and "intelligent" and chairs the Sekunjalo group, has come out fighting after critics speculated about the implications of his group's purchase of Independent News and Media, reports IOL, and SA film, Zulu, has premiered at the Cannes Film Festival.

- IOL: Iqbal Survé in Twitter war with Times Media... What seems to have annoyed him is speculation on the part of a number of critics that, given his links to the ANC and his personal politics, content in Independent publications would be censored after the takeover.
But he's having none of it and, according to the IOL report, he tweeted, "Unfortunately for Avusa and others, they are dealing with a fearless, intelligent, well resourced black man - their worst nightmare come true."
Maybe observers would be a little less concerned regarding the purchase if the good doctor could be a little more forthcoming with regard to exactly who will be involved in the purchase, in what capacity, etc.
