Media muzzle: Kasrils issues warning
NEWSWATCH: Former intelligence minister Ronnie Kasrils has warned of "huge problems" should the proposed Protection of Information Bill be passed in its present form, reports IOL; the SABC has been accused of wasting money, according to Times Live; and M-Net has a new look, writes Channel24.

- IOL: Kasrils warns against secrecy bill... This is not the first time Kasrils has criticised the bill in its present form, but the ANC seems hell-bent on steamrollering it through.
In an open letter he wrote: "It will certainly undermine public trust in the intelligence and security services at a time when confidence needs to be built." It's worse than that, however - many critics see the bill as little more than a means for what many perceive to be a corrupt administration to become even more corrupt, and less trustworthy.
Any chance the powers-that-be will listen to reason any time soon?
