Relationships?

As a journalist I find that at times politicians/sources will abuse me to advance their own objectives, I've got not problem with that as long as everything is reciprocal. I don't want money or a nice new job, just give me info when I need it.

Seemingly two senior journalists from the Cape Argus could/would not draw the line between being objective and masquarading as spies for political interests.

What has since emerged since the story broke on Monday was that both reporters strategised the communications policy for the premier of the Western Cape- even though they were journalists.

Blackman Ngoro has waded into the debate by claiming on his website that the two were out to destroy mayor Nomaindia Mfeketo by publishing stories that would damage her.
