Dear Editor
We are hereby expressing our discomfort,disrespect,misbehaviour and unethical
news coverage of the life of Our President,Cde Kgalema Motlanthe.
If indeed our media are operating like paparazzi that led to the continued
private lives intrusion of our leaders and We think media transformation in
South Africa should be a priority.What is most embarassing is that you feel
proud to unsettle families when you should channel your space to worthy and
revolutionary duties Our President continues to play for the people of Zimbabwe
and the rest of SADC.
We continue to support initiatives such as made by City Press to establish
Media Academy as a result of an open secret that our production of sound
journalists and analysts in this country is in dire need.The case in point,is
the Media Trials of our Leaders.
This must Stop with immediate Effect!!!!
How dare such a paper cover stories that are shwashi aligned maybe consider
becoming "township/surburb tell lies".
We ,young leaders in the country are discouraged by this kind of behaviour.We
are enlightened around issues of Media Ethics and think this was over-board.
The newspaper must apologise to the people of South Africa.Or we will consider
starting campaigns to boycott sales of your newspaper until you apologise.
We used to like your sound reporting but now we are disturbed by this.
Yours Comradely
Mampane Norman
