Does SA Journalists have future freedom?

South African journalists who mainly should be reporting what is happening around have turned to be the "head lines" of what is being reported. The Mail & Guardian (6/08/10) reported on the bail-release of Sunday Times journalist Mzilikazi wa Africa who was arrested.
  • Does journalists have to report good news only?
  • Does journalism ethics say "report only the goog news about the people on government"?
This issue follows that of Swaziland journalists who was threatened by Prince Mahlaba to be cautious on reporting bad news about the leadership of Swaziland.
  • As South African journalists do we see any future freedom in our career?
