Is digging in the EFF's trash going a step too far? | CannyMaphanga

" has left tongues wagging, questioning if the means of gathering the news was taken"a step too far".

"It was about hypocrisy and ideology and exposing the EFF about its policies. It was in the public interest to expose that information. I didn't think it went too far," she added.Herman Wasserman, who is a professor of media studies and director of the centre for film and media studies at UCT, raised the question of whether the same information could have been obtained by other means.

Wasserman further highlighted the question of whether the contents found in the trash were important for the public to know. He further clarified that it was the ethical duty of the media to inform the public if a politician's private life was contradictory to his or her public statements, but a different method could have been explored without infringing on a politician's right to be to be treated with dignity and care."I would say the motivation behind this article is valid even if people may disagree about the method.

CannyMaphanga EFF have physically assaulted people, made countless racist comments, disrupt or walk out of gov all the time, riot, march etc but digging in their trash by media is going too far?

CannyMaphanga No, just shows you how the EFF party when their voter and supporters struggle for work, food, clothing, housing, electricity and water

CannyMaphanga Next time the so called journalist are going 2visits the dustbin of the EFF only 2find worms inside the dustbin &they are to report as worthy news tht EFF members hv not emptied their waste dust in their yard how come tht be Important news bcs this prejud juornos are gvn the task

CannyMaphanga Reminder the EFF are Black Bolsheviks and their whole political ideology is stolen from the USSR communist revolution.

CannyMaphanga She just wasted her resource and time

CannyMaphanga Having read the article it sounds like a drive by lifestyle audit...

CannyMaphanga That’s not even a question that should have a “woke “ answer. If it exposes the hypocrisy of the EFF or any other party, there’s no problem.

CannyMaphanga Digging through someone's trash is not journalism. It's trashy qha. We never see anyone digging through VFF Plus, DA, ANC, IFP, PAC, Cope, UDM bins why the EFF only? It seems like a witch hunt. Pathetic! Cheap and lazy journalism if we can even call it 'journalism'

CannyMaphanga If you profess to be a Freedom Fighter for the poor and you take EFF membership fees from those poor members, you have an obligation to respect their plight by not living like rockstars. There's a lovely Afrikaans saying 'As jy jouself uitgee vir ń toffie, gaan jy gekou word'!

CannyMaphanga ja CIC once mentioned that on the journey we will kiss frogs just to win this battle. yerrr and this are stinking and ugly frogs.

CannyMaphanga I dont know you are journalist what do u think? Please tomorrow put a pot under the toilet Malema goes to and tell us whats in his shit we wanna know. And bacterials or WMD

CannyMaphanga it is clear that the journalist is after EFF leadership klaar, forgetting that hotels were full because it was sona for Cry out loud. anyway should the leadership bring along their own dust bins to clean trash? it is clear that our leadership maybe poisoned in hotels moes.

CannyMaphanga You must be too horny to dig up used condoms

CannyMaphanga Too far from what... sa media is always a step away to the trash anyway. Just continue with your trash it's not like you only started recently

CannyMaphanga What do you Think?

CannyMaphanga Nope. They pitch up outside citizens homes and offices to threaten and intimidate...and they bully and assault journalists, you get what you give!

CannyMaphanga All over the world this happens. Why would princess juju be special. He is a corrupt fool and is going down.

Malema slates Mashatile for 'taking advantage' of defamation ruling against EFFEFF leader Julius Malema has accused ANC treasurer-general Paul Mashatile of taking advantage of the courts after they ruled against the EFF for having defamed former finance minister Trevor Manuel. This is good, it will tone baseless accusations for political gain. Maybe Julius_S_Malema should have said PaulMashatile must explain where the money went, but to accuse him & now cry political speech doesn’t seem to add up! Teach them a lesson Paul. They think they have the right to say anything about people. Just the other day, they cried foul when Ringo was mocked by ANC MPs, yet Ndhlozi would say things about Lindiwe Zulu Top ANC leaders have been implicated in corruption in the Zondo Commission,even almost all ANC -led municipalties didn't get clean audit because of corruption.
