South Africa's Newspapers written in English? How this effects law makers decitions. - 0 views

It talks about how English-language newspapers dominate South Africa's print media. This is very interesting to me because you would think that more people would want to read something in their native language, yet millions of Africans are preferring to read their newspaper in English. It also stated that "the English-language press is also read by the most important decision makers and policy advisers in the country on a regular basis and no doubt influences coverage in non-English newspapers as well as television and radio". What in the world is going on here? This is corrupting their culture!
