Sabc 2
Build SA! May 20, 2011
Is it just me or are the Sabc presenters against Helen Zille? I've been watching this broadcast for about an hour and everytime a question is asked by the male and female presenter, they make it sound like Helen is taking the ANC's ideas to run their campaign. Not ONCE have I heard an attack against the guy from the ANC!! Every question towards Helen is an accusation. It's PATHETIC. Control the prejudice presenters PLEASE because they are obviously ANC voters as they very subtly attack Helen especially the Male presenter. read full review »
