## Resource

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. The Broadcasting Complaints Commission ruled SAFM must apologize and air the findings, stressing broadcasters’ critical role in combating disinformation ahead of elections—and SAFM’s now pledging to overhaul its editorial standards for future sensitive interviews.
