SABC Workers Threaten to Protest

A coalition of television workers has announced that it will protest next week against the money crisis at the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), brought about by its "arrogant" management.

The Television Industry Emergency Coalition (TVIEC), which claims to represent more than 80 percent of local content on air, says that the public broadcaster owe artists, writers and producers millions of rands.

According to a TVIEC press statement, "The protest has been provoked by the public broadcaster's non-payment of millions of rands to independent producers and the subsequent retrenchments that are occurring throughout the industry."
