Cricket SA apologises to journalists Cricket South Africa’s (CSA) embattled Chief Executive, Thabang Moroe, has personally apologised to the journalists who had their accreditation revoked on Sunday.
CSA embattled Chief Executive, Thabang Moroe has personally apologised to four of the five journalists
The South African National Editors Forum has noted the apology but is adamant that such behaviour is a direct threat to media freedom, and should never be repeated.On Sunday the accreditation of five senior cricket scribes was suddenly and without explanation revoked, preventing them from covering Mzansi Super League matches in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
They have been subsequently re-instated and in an attempt to do some serious damage control, CSA CEO Moroe, personally apologised to four of the five. The utter disarray within the corridors of CSA also spells bad news for South Africa’s national team. A major sponsor of the Proteas Test and ODI side has expressed grave concern over CSA’s governance, with the start of a full tour against England just over three weeks away.
