Zille vs Cape Times
Loading player...
Western Cape government is stopping all subscriptions to the Cape Times because it is wasteful and fruitless to pay money for a paper that offers no value.
The back-story to this move, it seems, lies in DA leader and Western Cape Premier Helen Zille’s latest weekly party missive in which she takes aim at the Cape Times in a big way.
She accuses the paper of plagiarizing a 2012 research paper in a story it did this month about a “Baby Thomas”, a boy born with foetal alcohol syndrome near Wellington. She was suspicious of the story as it was lacking time frames and details, she says, and it rang a bell.
