Yet another SABC exec under investigation
NEWSWATCH: Yet another SABC executive, Matilda Gaboo, has been accused of "allegedly wasting tens of millions of rands on useless programmes and giving contracts to friends", the Sunday Times reported yesterday, Sunday, 22 March 2009. And, according to the Sunday Times editorial column yesterday, the SABC needs managers and board members appointed for their skills, not their political affiliations, if it is to operate properly.
Meanwhile, it is the opinion of Prof Guy Berger, head of the School of Journalism & Media Studies at Rhodes University, writing in his Mail & Guardian Online column, that what South Africa really needs is a public broadcaster that provides a distinctive public service.
