Summary
SAFM’s on the hot seat after being slapped with a broadcasting violation for failing to flag opinion as such during a fiery interview with activist Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, who dropped explosive claims about migrants, crime, corruption, and foreign military bases—all presented as fact without verification.
