Dateline Soweto: Travels with Black South African Reporters - Paperback
by William Finnegan (Author)
Dateline Soweto documents the working lives of black South African reporters caught between the mistrust of militant blacks, police harrassment, and white editors who--fearing government disapproval--may not print the stories these reporters risk their lives to get. William Finnegan revisited several of these reporters during the May 1994 election and describes their post-apartheid working experience in a new preface and epilogue.
Documents better than most a particularly complicated and historically significant relationship of journalism to politics.--Chandra Mukerji, coeditor of Rethinking Popular Culture
