The SA National Editors' Forum wants the disciplinary hearing of SABC editor-in-chief and head of news Phathiswa Magopeni to be held in public.

According to Sanef, the SABC is within its rights to investigate how the episode was aired despite a court interdict more than a month before, but the process should be in public as it is riddled with political connotations.

“That is why we are calling for openness in the handling of the matter. Given that the waters have been muddied by the blatant political attacks on Magopeni and the SABC over their coverage of the November 1 elections, we call on SABC management to make Magopeni’s hearing public in the interests of transparency. This will help dispel any perception that the process is a witch-hunt aimed to achieve political ends,” it said.
