Folks, as part of U3A I host a discussion group. Each month we select a topic and one person leads the discussion. At the last minute, I have to lead on the topic ‘How independent is the Press’. I need some pointers on what to read and where to find reliable sources of info. The discussion is on Wednesday so I don’t have too much time for loooong reads.
Hi Sarah, how interesting! Here is a selection of reads I think might work for you.
- Ferial Haffajee with the Friedrich Naumann Foundation: ‘South Africa still enjoys world-class Press Freedom’
- Press council: South Africa’s state of press freedom: ‘notable wins; significant work remains’
- The Daily Maverick press freedom archive
