Mixed reactions over SABC covering Polokwane

NEWSWATCH: There have been mixed reactions over the SABC being awarded exclusive rights “to provide the feed on the African National Congress (ANC) policy conference in Polokwane next month to all other broadcasters,” according to Business Day, and Naspers has also reported on its earnings for the sixth months to September 2007.

An interesting observation by Ray Hartley, editor of The Times, earlier this week was that all six Gauteng daily newspapers led with the same story: “Zuma's thumping of Mbeki at the ANC's provincial electoral meetings”.

Meanwhile, Myspace is planning to introduce Facebook-style “news feeds” within the next month and half, writes IOL Technology.
