News24 reports that the SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) on Tuesday morning fired Busisiwe Ntuli, a specialist producer for the investigative programme Special Assignment, Lukhanyo Calata, a SABC journalist in Cape Town, and economics editor Thandeka Gqubule.
This brings to seven the number of journalists sacked by the public broadcaster since Monday. Freelance journalist Vuyo Mvoko's contract with the corporation was terminated earlier this month. The journalists are part of the so-called SABC 8 who have been targeted for speaking out against censorship by the public broadcaster. They were recently awarded with the Nat Nakase award for fearless journalism and have since approached the Constitutional Court for direct access to reverse the action against them.
