Cape Town - Author and journalist Pieter-Louis Myburgh, who implicated ANC secretary-general Ace Magashule in alleged systematic state corruption in the Free State, has accused him of influencing media coverage while he was premier. Myburgh, whose book, Gangster State, was published recently, addressed a question and answer session at the Cape Town Press Club yesterday.
“There were media houses who did well because they did not feed into the political discourse they are publishing. There were two publications, Free State Times and the Weekly, the Times was a critical voice of Magashule’s government. They got to the core of some of his corrupt dealings.” He further claimed the private sector was also reeled in and told not to advertise with publications which reported on Magashule’s dealings.
