SABC news journalists, in an open revolt against boss Hlaudi Motsoeneng, donned black on Friday to show their support for their fired #SABC8 colleagues and to protest against the national broadcaster's censorship policies.


The on-air "blackout" on SABC News and the SABC's various TV news bulletins was however primarily done to show their united support for the eight SABC journalists who were suspended, then fired for voicing concern over chief operating officer COO Motsoeneng's censorship orders.


Four of the eight appeared in the Labour Court on Friday afternoon
