South Africa: Cosatu queries SABC banning

The Mail and Guardian newspaper reports that the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) has written a letter to the group chief executive of the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), asking him if there was any truth to reports that his corporation had banned four top political commentators. This comes after reports that Aubrey Matshiqi, William Gumede, Karima Brown and Vukani Mde have been banned.
