The Northern Cape was the last office, where the SABC established a presence for its news division in 1996.

His master's voice - a phrase that once upon time was used when frequently referring to the SABC. The meaning, is that the SABC board - and inevitably the newsroom - pandered to the government of the day. And this was not only before 1994 It took former employees, Parliament and civil society to intervene to turn the ship around and to change the sentiment. In recent history the operations of the SABC board are open to more scrutiny and transparency. Zalene Merrington and Video Journalist Hubert Slingers takes a look at the process of appointing the SABC board
