    Sanef calls out government for community media exclusion on media trip

    The South African National Editors' Forum (Sanef) has expressed its concern over the government's decision to exclude community media journalists from a recent media trip in Limpopo.

    The journalists were invited on a trip to cover the launch of the 16 days of activism, including a visit to the Medupi Power Station and the launch of a new District Development Model in Waterberg aimed at ensuring integrated planning, budgeting and development by all three spheres of government.

    According to reports, the community media journalists were left off the bus that was transporting all media; only a selected group of journalists were invited. In a statement, Sanef reiterates its stance that all journalists should be invited and be welcome at all public events and that special provisions should be made for community media.
