The South Africa High Court ruled this week that the Public Protector “allowed her important office to be used to try and resuscitate a long-dead fake news propaganda fiction” by relying on the Sikhakhane report only. "Judges Selby Baqwa, Annali Basson and Leonie Windell found that Mkhwebane’s conclusions were based on “discredited reports and unsubstantiated facts”. Her report, the court held, “fails at every point” and the judges were satisfied “that the report is the product of a wholly irrational process, bereft of any sound legal or factual basis”." Rampedi needs to reflect on his role in creating and peddling this "fake news propaganda fiction" which has no "factual basis" (and merely claiming that he's a victim of some media cabal conspiracy to discredit him is ludicrous: does this cabal control 3 judges of the High Court? Those journalists must be incredibly powerful!).

Illuminating 🙏🏾

Piet is a brilliant Journo

It's good to hear Rampedi's voice here, and hear his own explanation of his process, specifically around the Rogue Unit investigations. I resonated with his complaint about how he has been treated by his fellow journalists since: "...it deprived ordinary South Africans of good journalism...of their right to know and be informed without any distortion." - Rampedi. It's vitally important that journalists present all sides of a story, allowing right-of-reply to who they are reporting on, and not pushing a single narrative but allowing for complexity and nuance. Yet, this is what not what Rampedi did with the Rogue Unit investigation. It's a matter of record that the unit was set up legally (not illegally, as Rampedi still claims here - although later on in the interview he says that the previous Finance Minister Trevor Manual established the unit). Every report into the "Rogue" Unit has been withdrawn, or descredited (which led to the resignation of 9 top KPMG officials, including their CEO and CTO). The "Sunday Times treatment" was to present a single narrative, which is what they did with the Rogue Unit and Cato Manor stories, which were only retracted years later, by the new Sunday Times editor, Bongani Siqoko. He met with the investigative team and asked them to back up their stories, but they couldn't. He even did what no editor before him had done - he actually met with members of the SARS unit to hear their side of the story. However, Rampedi wasn't interested in hearing Van Loggerenberg's [who worked in the SARS unit] side of the story: "When Rampedi heard his editor was talking to Van Loggerenberg, he resigned. ‘He wasn’t even interested in what we talked about,’ Siqoko said." Rampedi says in this interview: "When we produced evidence about the Rogue Unit," however, this evidence does not exist. None of the members of the Sunday Times investigative unit have been able to produce evidence to show that the brothel exists, where it operated from, what its address is. Quoting Siqoko again: "I said I want to be able to defend you, so tell me where this brothel was. In Durban, they [Mzilikazi Wa Afrika and Stephan Hofstatter, Sunday Times investigative journalists] said. I said where in Durban, one said Durban North and the other said it was behind a certain hill, so they argued. They didn’t know where it was. They said the brothel was mentioned in a document. But even that document does not say it. It says the guys had arrived at this house that belonged to the unit and there had been a party, and there were women, and it felt like a brothel. So I asked, how did they pay the women? Did we even go to this place? They did not agree when I said we should apologise. They felt their stories were solid, and they had done a thorough investigation. There were also issues of fairness and balance. The culture here was to only start making calls to people they were writing about [on] Friday. They were scared of leaks, and there were some of these. My argument was that we are not fair to the people we are writing about. Sometimes you have to do this, but sometimes they were working on a story for a while, so there are issues of fairness." And again from Harber: "Nowhere in the [KPMG] report could KPMG confirm the Sunday Time’s core allegation that Zuma had been bugged, or that the unit had broken into homes, had millions in secret funding or operated a brothel." Rampedi's letter of resignation to the Sunday Times is instructive: "Rampedi was very concerned that media should tell all versions of a story, and not stick with one narrative, he claimed. ‘I am of the view that the Sunday Times or any media for that matter must avoid being used as a platform for one narrative … all versions must be told.’ This was an unexpected complaint about a newspaper that had doggedly stuck with a single narrative, and ignored all competing versions, and more so from a reporter who’d refused to speak to some of the people he was reporting on. But then he made clear what narrative he didn’t want: ‘I think the narrative being pursued is a racist one seeking to discredit all those who are African in the dispute...’" "And again: ‘I think the Sunday Times must desist from entertaining a narrative that in the SARS saga only those who are African did wrong, regardless of the facts to the contrary.’ Since the narrative the paper had carried was one that tore down mostly whites and Indians, this was a strange concern. But then, Rampedi’s letter didn’t engage with the issues of the stories or their veracity at all. There was no acknowledgment of any errors made, and the Press Council rulings were dismissed out of hand. What emerged was his motivation for the whole story: a racial Africanism that viewed Zuma, Moyane and their allies as those who brought transformation and promised radical economic change, and who were prepared to confront whites and Indians who were seen to block it." "[Rampedi] was oblivious to the damage Moyane had wrought on the country’s tax institution and its capacity to fight serious crime, or the fact that men like Ivan Pillay and Pete Richer had substantial progressive and struggle credentials." Note what the Sunday Times editor at the time of the Rogue Unit stories, Phylicia Oppelt, has done: "And then she did what few of her colleagues had done: she took full, unqualified responsibility for what had happened. ‘It has been years since the SARS stories were published,’ she wrote, ‘and I still do not know who sought to sway the Sunday Times with the information - whether it was merely sources within the Revenue Services or more powerful players. The buck stopped with me, however, and I know the significant and negative impact that those stories had on many people. ‘I regret this and the fact that people were hurt.’" Worse, Rampedi does not comment in this interview on how the media, specifically the Sunday Times, was manipulated by the state for political aim. "The pattern had been established: when someone got in the way of Zuma and his allies, such as Moyane, mud was thrown at them, no matter how spurious, and the Sunday Times was happy to report it." In a High-Level Review Panel report by an expert panel appointed by Ramaphosa to look into the State Security Agency (SSA) and its role in state capture, released in May 2019, read: "‘There has been a serious politicisation and factionalisation of the intelligence community over the past decade … resulting in an almost complete disregard for the Constitution, policy, legislation and other prescripts, and turning our civilian intelligence community into a private resource to serve the political and personal interests of particular individuals’." "On the SSA’s activities with journalists, the report said that among the ‘intelligence operations which were clearly unconstitutional and illegal … [was] infiltrating and influencing the media in order, apparently, to counter bad publicity for the country, the then president and the SSA’." In Rampedi's telling, there is a media cabal who are hell bent on discrediting him - the journalist who reports all of the facts, who gives a right of reply to his sources, always speaks to sources, and doesn't push a single narrative. However, his editor at the time, Phylicia Oppelt, has realised they were played and has apologized. A subsequent Sunday Times editor, Bongani Siqoko, has apologized for the unethical journalism of the Sunday Times investigative unit. Are they part of this media cabal? Or is this a journalist who won't accept that he was played for political purposes?
