SABC denies Sowetan story
SABC yesterday, Tuesday, 1 September 2009, denied the Sowetan's Tuesday 1 September story that the SABC interim board would announce Phil Molefe as group executive for SABC news division today. It also stated it would like to apologise to the people whose names were used in the article, as some of them are not even on the shortlist.
A spokesperson said that “this kind of behaviour undermines the processes that the SABC has put in place to fill this crucial position. To use anonymous source to substantiate a story that is factually not correct and is intended to create suspicion about the credibility of the process is regrettable".
The SABC urged the media to allow it space to continue with its processes until finality. What is in the public interest is the outcome of the process and the SABC will make an announcement once the outcome has been reached. It said it would like to reassure the public that the process would be fair.
