A new power on the airwaves?

Come 18 June and we'll see the launch of Power FM, the new radio station that has deep pockets and has used them to buy some of the best talent out there. Fair? Unfair? Virgin Mobile's CEO has a few harsh things to say about MTN and Vodacom, which he claims have used anti-competitive behaviour to hammer his company. There are only two types of people in this world who never make mistakes - those who do nothing and - they say it, we don't - politicians. Catherine Milward-Bridges takes a look at leadership and has some pointers for you - such as... you need to listen. Given that, thanks in large part to government interference, the SABC has become somewhat of a circus - many people believing the latter to have fewer clowns - what we need is less government interference, not more... So it's not very reassuring when we read that communications minister (she with the red shoes) wants more control over the SABC. On the newspaper front, Anton Harber has some lessons in newspaper ownership for Iqbal Survé, the incoming owner of Independent News & Media SA. And finally... Hey Bro...Do you want to go like a pro... you know... win an awesome GoPro camera and accessories worth over R6,000. It's so simple... just create or update your MyBiz Profile on Bizcommunity and stand a chance to WIN.
