The South African National Editors' Forum (Sanef) has condemned finance minister Tito Mboweni's social media posts that threatened war against editors.
Check out the posts below:
Wars start in different ways. Spears and shields, gun powder, bullets, and now through media: printed and electronic ( eg trade wars by a super power President ), and then Social media!! Well, the SA Editors must be Editors!! If needs be, we will be forced into the fight, WAR!
