Friday, 2 March 2007, marked the last SAfm morning radio show by veteran journalist John Perlman. His departure, reports IOL, was heralded "by protests and extraordinary tributes, including a full-page advertisement endorsed by Cosatu and 221 prominent people and organisations” and “a Zapiro cartoon depict[ing] Perlman leaving the SABC while other staff walked through a brain-washing machine and ‘free thought detector’ operated by [head of SABC News Snuki] Zikalala”.
