Strange why News24 hasn't mentioned it. Perhaps the PP wants to track what the Gupta camp are saying. I will wait for more info before I start getting violent.

That woman is captured. That's probably why JZ insisted the investigation into State capture be deferred to her. I can already imagine how this will play out: criticize Thuli as much as possible (she already started yesterday) so in time she can rubbish her report. Write a new report and declare that there is no State capture.  :(

She: "asked that the television channels in the office reception be changed from eNCA to the Gupta-owned ANN7 and told staff that the office existed to work with government and not to be its enemy."  :(

"Insiders say she disagrees with some aspects of the report and the way it was finalised."

The original report will never see the light of day unless it gets leaked.

What happened to BTI Initially up over 3% due to the anticipated Reynolds takeover, now down ?

Among equities, cigarette maker British American Tobacco remained the top FTSE 100 riser, jumping 3.6 per cent, or 170.5p higher to 4,973.5p after unveiling plans for a $47billion (£38.3billion) merger with US tobacco firm Reynolds, the maker of Camel and Pall Mall, which would create the world's largest listed tobacco company. BAT currently owns 42.2 per cent of Reynolds.

I think it was probably quite difficult to read the newspapers this weekend if your surname was either Zuma or Gupta... Huge stories, imagine how much money is being stolen if they can offer someone R600 million in bribes...

Journalists are sensationalists these days, a 1% drop is a market crash sometimes as well

I would counter that financial journalists have been sensationalists for a good many years - ever since they found words and phrases like stella;shoot the lights out; surged; free fall; eye watering; fell off a cliff; and a host of other phrases and words. My interaction with journalist whilst still employed was not so much the article but the headline was the all catching consideration. Unfortunately its not the stories that captive the audience it's the audacious headlines. However rest assured that the really pithy and eye catching headlines are still reserved for politics - after all headlines sell newspapers/magazines
