Black culture better protected under apartheid claims actor

NEWSWATCH: Actor Sello Maake ka-Ncube has criticised the ANC government, saying that Black culture was protected better and heard better under apartheid, reports Business Day. On a lighter note, ZANews, the new satirical news programme, is up and running, reports IOL and Mail & Guardian Online. IOL also reports that Candice Judith (CJ) Benjamin, Lotus FM Youth Crossfire presenter, has apparently lost her job but plans to challenge the SABC.
