SABC JOURNALISTS TO KNOW THEIR FATE TOMORROW

Four dismissed South African Broadcasting Corporation journalists will know their fate tomorrow with judgment in the Labour Court expected to be handed down.

Last week Foeta Krige, Suna Venter, Krivani Pillay and Jacques Steenkamp took the broadcaster to court, after being dismissed for speaking out against censorship and an editorial policy that banned the visuals of violent protests.

This also comes as the public broadcaster agreed to rescind its decision after a recommendation made by the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa.

Solidarity’s Anton van der Bijl says they are hopeful that they will win the case.
