SABC fires DJ Fresh
The SABC fired DJ Fresh, who presented the Fresh Breakfast on Metro FM, on Tuesday afternoon with immediate effect as the result of a listener's complaint over his use of the word 'msunery' taken from the Zulu word m***u, meaning a**h**e in English.
This happened shortly after he guest featured on Newsroom Afrika's morning television news show, Breaking Dawn. It has since been noted that this was a once-off and that he will not be joining Newsroom Afrika. Instead, he has announced that he will be starting his new show and 'next chapter' on 1 August, details of which have yet to be disclosed.
