South Africa: Presidency Corrects Mail and Guardian Selective Reporting

press release

The Presidency is disturbed by the selective manner in which the Mail and Guardian online has reported on President Zuma's condolence message at the memorial service of 13 soldiers who died in the Central African Republic.

The Mail and Guardian states: "It was a speech thin on condolences but heavily laced with accusation and warning" and the Mail and Guardian deliberately does not cover the tribute to the soldiers at all in its report in order to justify this comment in its article.
