Special focus on media freedom
 [Issa Sikiti da Silva: @sikitimedia] Newspaper columnists in South Africa have been allowed a wide degree of latitude, a mentality inherited from the age-old British convention that has elevated them to the status of 'gods', Lesley Cowling, senior lecturer at Wits University's School of Journalism, told a media forum last week in Johannesburg, as the debate about the 'shocking' columns of David Bullard, Kuli Roberts and Jon Qwelane resurfaces in the media corridors. Read more >>
 [Issa Sikiti da Silva: @sikitimedia] The controversial Sunday Times Review Panel's full report - withheld and hidden from the public view for a long time but brought to light by freelance journalist Michelle Solomon and finally published this week by Business Day - has been met with mixed reactions from media analysts and politicians. Read more >>
 [Chris Moerdyk: @chrismoerdyk] As much as the South African government might feel the need to introduce information bills and media tribunals to keep the media at bay and in check, it will be a losing battle. While many governments have, in the past, been able to almost muzzle their media and come close to proving that the sword is, in fact, mightier than the pen, they will find that the digital pen is now winning the battle hands down. Read more >>
Marketing
 [Herman Manson: @marklives] Firms such as New Media (formerly New Media Publishing) have always positioned themselves as the meeting point between content and marketing. Now they are moving away from pulp and ink (though it remains a large and profitable chunk of the business) towards multiple platforms including mobile, the web and tablets. Read more >>
 Thandiwe January-Mclean has resigned as CEO of South African Tourism "to pursue her own personal interests", SA Tourism board chairperson Jabu Mabuza has announced.

 LONDON, UK: Apart from a Yellow Pencil for the Die Antwoord music video in the Music Video category, South Africa didn't convert any of the remaining three Pencil nominations at the D&AD Awards last night, Thursday, 16 June 2011, in London.

 [Dr Nikolaus Eberl] One year on - and not a single South African newspaper considered the 2010 FIFA World Cup Anniversary worth mentioning on the front cover (apart from a tiny Zakumi gracing the City Press banner). Equally disinterested was the national broadcaster, which did not even devote a single show to remembering what once had been billed "South Africa's greatest moment in history" - and even 702 pulled its World Cup Special in favour of a discussion on how holiday homes can be rented at a discount in low season.

Cinema
Indie cinema house celebrates 1st birthday, awards most-attended film In celebration of its first birthday, Johannesburg independent cinema house The Bioscope awarded Adi Loveland its own 'Golden Palm' for his film, 'Unhinged: surviving Jo'burg', which was its most-attended film over the year. The cinema also began its Encounters Documentary Film Fest, which runs until 26 June 2011. For movie information, go to www.thebioscope.co.za.
Updated at 15.45pm on 17 June 2011 to remove ambiguity. Bizcommunity.com apologises for any confusion caused: the company referred to here is The Bioscope Independent Cinema, not production house Bioscope Films.

 [Gill Moodie: @grubstreetSA] Media luvvies sat up and took notice last week when the news came that Daily Maverick founder Branko Brkic is launching the country's first-ever iPad-only daily newspaper in August 2011. If Brkic's plots and plans are an indication that local journalism is heading boldy off into completely new waters, there's another interesting new product coming our way: a weekly news magazine from Media24.

[Issa Sikiti da Silva: @sikitimedia] The Climate Change Media Partnership (CCMP) - an initiative of the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), Internews and Panos - last week launched a policy briefing paper that urges governments in developing countries to build strong relationships with the media to fight climate change, instead of just 'using' the media as a 'public outreach' channel for promoting their own messages.
