Media Statement: Sowetan condemns threats against its journalist Herman Moloi
The Sowetan is appalled by the unacceptable conduct of Stuart-James Scharnik, who threatened and intimidated our reporter Herman Moloi, who is covering the Madlanga Commission from the Bridget Mabandla Justice College. We condemn this behaviour in the strongest terms.
A complaint has been laid with the commission regarding the incident and a case has been opened with the police.
Threats against journalists are a threat against democracy. Journalists must be free to report on matters of public interest without fear, threats or harassment. A threat against journalists does not only affect the individual, but also adversely impacts the public's right to know.
We call on law enforcements to act swiftly against the perpetrator to protect media freedom.

Don't fall for Elon Musk's gaslighting.
There is a massive, life-or-death difference between well-planned budget cuts and a sudden, reckless halt to promised medical aid.
Musk is actively lying about the fatal consequences of his USAID cuts. The US is not obligated to fund healthcare for the entire planet, but if a nation decides to pull back its global aid, it must be done responsibly. Ripping away funding mid-treatment means you are directly responsible for the preventable deaths that follow.
Instead of owning up to the fallout, Musk is flooding X with dishonest spin. He first challenged critics to name even one person whose death he caused. When people actually did, he immediately moved the goalposts, claiming that any spending cut inevitably causes deaths.
He is a dishonest charlatan trying to hide the fact that his chaotic decisions got thousands of vulnerable children and adults killed. That will be his lasting legacy
