In this live show, Keyan Tomaselli gives a detailed overview of the South African mediascape in 1990. He compares the Afrikaans commercial press (pro-government, pro-apartheid, and pro-capitalism) with the English commercial press (anti-apartheid but NOT anti-capitalist) and the alternative/progressive press (anti-apartheid and anti-capitalist). He examines some of the impacts of the mainstream media on race relations and the cultural landscape after apartheid and highlights the community-based, democratically produced Grassroots newspaper in Capetown.
