I was looking up the nominations for "The New 7 Wonders of Nature" over at New7Wonders when I came across a contestant site from Nigeria in the Mountains Category.

 

What caught my attention was the Name of the site from Nigeria ... Get ready it's called the "Zuma Rock " .

Is the DA out to win the elections ... ?

Call me curious, but is the Democaratic Alliance out to win the 2009 South African General Elections or are they aiming at just securing a position as the official/largest opposition Party ?

What brings me to this question ? I have noticed that the DA is most active in the Western Cape and their biggest reach has been in the media ( Print and Web Based ) mostly around the Jacob Zuma saga.

If the DA is aiming at winning the elections, can they achieve this by reaching out to the mostly the Western Cape and the Internet User ? I mean they have taken out web based ads too.   Here in the Free State ( especially Bloemfontein ) the DA has been AWOL as far as visibility and active campaigning is concerned.

Digesting what the media feeds us

I have been an avid reader of the print media for many many years. To put it simply, not a day goes by for me without me reading at least 4 daily newspapers. The media is a very powerful machine and has a big influence on the way readers perceive events/incidents/current issues that are reported by them ( Media ), so much so that some of us may totally believe views that have been reported in the media with out questioning motives behind the articles.

 Is the media 100% unbiased ?  Are there elements in the media houses that make use of the media to further certain aims and change the readers perceptions on certain issues ?  Are the "spin doctors" of certain organisations so influential that they can so easily influence the way news is reported by journalists ?

Join me as I focus on issues related to the coverage of South Africas General Election, 2009.
