Sunday Times

I think I want to talk about maybe one example is Arena Holdings.

which owns the Sunday Times, it owns Business Day and the Times Live digital website.

And just this year, Arena Holdings sold The Herald, which is the oldest surviving newspaper in the country.

I think The Herald was established in the late 1800s.

Mm.

Right? And, uh, you know, whether it was reading the Sunday Times every Sunday or whether it was...

And we didn't grow up with a TV, so that's the, that's the crazier part.

S- so yes, I mean, in the earlier years, right? In fact, my, my, my initial memory of, of the television and journalism is Leana Nvuyo, right?

Um, appreciate it, Selby.

Uh, Mokgotho, uh, speaks on behalf of, uh, um, SIU.

I thought it's worth just again understanding how far their investigation has gone, because it's been four years now, um, as the Sunday Times reported, and this man is still not prosecuted, still not charged.

Uh, there are no, you know, um, criminal charges that he's facing just as yet.

Colleen had retired.

Um, I think there was Gwen Gill doing it in, for the Sunday Times.

Oh, the Sunday Times, yes.

But it wasn't a thing.

It was only when I came back f- well, during maternity leave with my f- my first child, my daughter Amy, in 1998, that they did some, the Mercury in Durban, um-
