Market-driven English daily newspapers continue, through a series of new filters, to limit, shape, and censor ideas for the benefit of the elite private and public sectors. The manufactured, one-dimensional, pro-market world view that results restricts both freedom and democracy. As South Africa enters its second decade of democracy, with new freedoms and civil liberties, further evaluation of this relationship between the media, the state, and the market becomes increasingly vital. The ‘Propaganda Model’ as laid out by Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky, in their book, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media (1988, updated 2002) represents a significant analysis of media performance in a democracy. The authors question basic premises of democracy and the free press. According to Herman and Chomsky, the US media “serve, and propagandise on behalf of, the powerful societal interests that control and finance them.” This qualitative and quantitative study demonstrates that propaganda and media control continues today within South African English daily newspapers. To prove this argument, this paper examines how three South African newspapers cover forestry, terrorism, and the New African Partnership for African Development (NEPAD) over a two-year period. The quantitative study surveyed 1797 articles and examined the use of sources quoted and revealed censorship of alternative voices. The qualitative analysis examined the vested interests and various players have in a pro-market, censored representation of NEPAD, the forestry industry, and terrorism. The study revealed that capitalism and the resulting interlocking capital of board members, newspaper owners, advertisers, and the government, cause newspapers to engage in self-censorship and exclusion of threatening voices to advance the interests of the elite. Lovaas 8 Lovaas 9 Manufacturing Consent in democratic South Africa: An introduction The media has a transcendent quality to it. Its immenseness and ability to rouse, elicit, and change behaviours of individuals, communities, and even nations, is astonishing.1 In democracies, virtually all public, political, economic, and social decisions go through the media. It is so powerful and so vital in political life that its utilization requires careful regulation and monitoring. This is not a new concept by any means.2 Leaders, politicians, and corporations have long recognized that control over the media is indispensable. This has often led to undemocratic use and misuse of the media in both repressive regimes and democracies. While the emotionally charged issues of propaganda and media control may seem to run contrary to notions of individual freedom and proclaimed principles of democracy, control of the media and use of propaganda tactics are arguably just as common in many of today’s democracies as they were in past regimes.3 Yet propaganda, mind control, indoctrination, and the ‘duping of the masses’ continue to be associated primarily with repressive societies. South Africans, however familiar they are with these practices, often view them as tactics of the apartheid regime, and any remains are vestiges of days gone by. However, the quest to influence, manipulate, peddle, and ultimately win over the ‘hearts and minds’ of fellow citizens has been with humanity from the beginning of time and does not require a repressive regime. The ‘propaganda model’ that Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky lay out in their book Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media (1988, updated 2002) represents a significant analysis of media performance in a democracy. The authors question basic premises of democracy and the free press. According to Herman and Chomsky, the US media “serve, and propagandise on behalf of the powerful societal interests that control and finance them.”4 Expanding Herman and Chomsky’s focus to outside of the US, I will similarly argue that the craft of trying to influence the minds and behaviours of others through the media is not limited to repressive state regimes. Quite contrarily, I will argue that in the case of South Africa, propaganda and media control continues today, under the auspices of a new democracy, within South African English daily newspapers. I will demonstrate this through examining how three South African newspapers cover forestry, terrorism, and the

  • Media Misfires Address
    The Roundtable St. Louis, Missouri February 28, 2006 Media Misfires: Lessons from a Troubled Time Speech by Jon Sawyer, Director of the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting It’s a great pleasure to be here, and such an elegant occasion. It was at a dinner nearly this elegant, not so far from here and some 30 years ago, that I first met Joe and Annie Schlafly. It happened that my wife’s mother and Ellen Conant, Annie’s mother, had mutual friends from college – and so Ellen and George organized what they called an “informal little dinner” to introduce us to St. Louis. We were just a few months married then, and just a few months out of college -- and while I had what was to me the unbelievable job of Post-Dispatch editorial writer we nonetheless qualified for subsidized housing at the old Laclede Town townhouse apartments off Olive Street in midtown. At the time we didn’t even have a car, and George Conant drove in from Ladue to pick us up, in a fire-engine-red Cadillac convertible. He had just outfitted the car with a Citizens Band radio, as I recall, and entertained us by chatting with truck drivers all the way home. When we got to the house we discovered that the “informal little dinner” was a sit-down affair for 24, with something like six or seven courses and all served, so far as I can recall, on sterling silver. No one remarked on the fact that I was the only man present not in coat and tie.

According to the report, prisoners would produce their own food in future to ease pressure on the budget of the Department of Correctional Services. The department currently pays catering contractors millions of rand per year to run prison kitchens and feed prisoners. The Minister said, under the Correctional Services Act, prisoners are supposed to work but this is uncommon in South African prisons.
