The SABC must comply with it's Charter, the integrity and independence of journalists must be guaranteed and news must be unbiased and free from editorial interference.

Our Public Broadcaster should educate us about our country and not shut us out. They suppose to highlight our issues not cut them out and in the least they need to be our source of transparency to see what Government is doing to advance R.S.A

What happens in the country should be what is shown to the public. The sabc claims its honest whereas its politically aligned. This has to stop

SABC needs to break free from this Dictatorship and the ridiculous censorship madness. Immediately, if not sooner.

Media censorship is the first step to totalitarianism, see Russia 1917- onwards, Nazi Germany 1934- 45, South Africa 1961-94, South Africa 2016-?

SABC has been hijacked by the known terrorist H Motsoeneng and his uncle JZ. We will not pay the TV Licences for the junk they are broadcasting. SABC is bigger than ANC they shouldn't use it as a platform of apartheid era campaign. Adv Thuli Madonsela never doubted the low IQ of Hlaudi by her recommendations that he must be removed. Now he is causing more damage at an expense of our tax. He is a very wicked and evil man that u can tell by a mere look to his face.

Because the SABC which are sponsored by our TV licenses amongst other are keeping us in the dark re news programs and generally they have become a ANC Government propaganda machine :(

the SABC is watched and listened too by the low income earners, which is the majority in our country. If this institution is allowed to be controlled by a dictator, it will be used to brainwash the majority. We will also have 2 versions of all our news. We will start reliving apartheid news bulletins.

The people of RSA needs to know, they have the right to know. And the public broadcaster is the only source of information and factual reporting, for the bigger % of the population. Keep them informed is also a medium of education. Deprive them of this knowledge is to keep them ........

I believe in freedom of speech, disagree with cencorship and underwrite the principle of unbiased and accurate news reporting.

#23 No to the SABC censorship

2016-06-28 10:21

Freedom of speech is part of our constitution and we the public should not be restricted on what can or can't be broadcast on radio or TV. The SABC is not a state broadcaster but a public broadcast, for the people of South Africa and not for the benefit of the ANC.

The SABC was created for the people of S.A by the people of S.A. The creators of this institution (The people of S.A) should not be dictated to what they may or may not see on their T.V's - this is why we pay our TV licensenses.

 

Allowing censorship within the SABC is not only unconstitutional it is illegal - It nullifies the contractual agreement between the public and the SABC in terms of the TV license.

 

You pay your T.V license we supply unbiased, true and accurate news...

 

It is quite simple, the SABC did not uphold their contractual agreement therefor the people of SA should not have to pay for TV licenses.

 

It is time that the country's leaders realise that they are where they are because of the people of the nation. If they do not listen to the people of this country, they must leave. We want leaders that listen to us, the people of South Africa. If you cannot do that then leave! Go to Zimbabwe!

 

It is us, the people of South Africa, that put you in the position you are. If you ignore us and you deny us free and unbiased news, it is us, the people of South Africa, that will remove you from your position.

 

The time has come for South Africans to realise that the leaders we have chosen HAS to listen to us, the HAVE to answer to us! Not the other way around!

It is appalling what the SABC has become. Same as during apartheid.
