News24.com | ENCA journalist apologises for the disrespect caused by masks debacle

Reporter Lindsay Dentlinger was conducting interviews during the Budget Speech at the time of the incident.
Lubabalo Lesolle/Gallo Images
- eNCA reporter Lindsay Dentlinger has apologised for the masks debacle.
- She claimed she was not a racist as many were claiming.
- Dentlinger promised to give eNCA space to conclude its investigation.
eNCA reporter Lindsay Dentlinger has apologised for the disrespect caused by the masks furore.
Dentlinger has been in the news after being accused of being a racist.
She was accused of interviewing white people without masks while asking black people to wear one.
Dentlinger has disputed the claims.
“I totally acknowledge the outrage and I apologise for the disrespect it has caused to people who don’t deserve to be drawn into this.”
She said she would give her employer space to conclude the investigation into the matter.
She said:
This debate has been on a premise that I am white because it is perceived that I am white. Does my apology need to change anyway if we correct the facts before I can make an apology?
“I felt awful from how this is perceived and what the country believes to be a true reflection of who I am as a journalist. I do acknowledge how it is portrayed. I am being portrayed as to not speaking to any black unless he is wearing a mask.”
READ | eNCA says Lindsay Dentlinger’s failure to ask interviewee to don a mask was not racist
Dentlinger claimed the incidents were not isolated and said this happened between October 2020 and last week, in different locations.
“People don’t want to hear that it was an oversight for me not to ask [FF Plus leader Pieter] Groenewald not to wear a mask. He was my first interviewee. Things are working differently in this time of Covid-19.
“Normally, I would have producers with me who would grab interviewees and make sure they are prepared for broadcast. Groenewald didn’t have a mask on [him in person] before I started interviewing him.
“My gut instinct is to ask precise question and get answers viewers want to hear. My first instinct was not check or to think that he was not wearing his mask,” she said.
“Did I err in not following company policy in that moment? Yes, I did. When I turned around [UDM MP Nqabayomzi] Kwankwa was coming down the steps wearing his mask and that triggered me to ask him to [keep on] wearing his mask. I was acting as a journalist first.”
Dentlinger added she did not ask Kwankwa to wear a mask because of the colour of his skin.
“I acknowledge the outraged and I called Kwankwa and [IFP MP Mkhuleko] Hlengwa and apologised to them. I didn’t mean to disrespect them. I have been called out to acknowledge my unconscious bias. What about the unconscious bias of people who have based this entire furore on the fact that they perceived me to [be] white and therefore I was acting in a racist manner.
“The bias goes all ways. I totally acknowledge it is outrageous and the outrage it has caused and what it looked like,” she said.
eNCA’s managing director, Norman Munzhelele, said the company did not exist in a vacuum, but existed in a society and had to contribute towards building this country.
“We had to look at all the facts and be able to make a determination. We are not being defensive. We are accountable to the people and accountable to our audience. The statement [issued earlier] could have been better. We could have finalised our investigation quicker and be able to issue a statement.
“I take accountability. It is a lesson and we will do better next time. It is unfortunate that Sanef has not called me to deal with this issue. I will reach out to Sanef and will have a discussion about what happened and take it from there,” Munzhelele added.
Meanwhile, the UDM is taking the matter to the SA Human Rights Commission and the IFP has refused to being interviewed by eNCA and has escalated the matter to the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of SA.
ANC members are expected to protest outside eNCA offices on Wednesday.

News24.com | NDZ granted leave to appeal High Court judgment that tore into her tobacco ban

Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma Nkosazana has been granted leave to appeal the Western Cape High Court’s ruling on tobacco sales ban.
The Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA) Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma has been granted leave to appeal the Western Cape High Court’s ruling that said her decision to ban the sale of tobacco for five months during the hard lockdown was unnecessary and unconstitutional, the Mail & Guardian reported on Monday.
The ban was put in place to curb the spread of the Covid-19 and thus reduce the occupation of intensive care unit (ICU) beds by smokers. The government argued then that smoking increased the risk of getting Covid-19 in a more severe form.
Although the ban was lifted months ago, it seems that the legal tussle around it cannot be put to bed.
Represented by Dlamini-Zuma and President Cyril Ramaphosa and the National Coronavirus Command Council, applied for leave to appeal the ruling in January even though the issue of the sales ban was no longer relevant at that stage and neither was government looking to reintroduce the sales ban.
The Council and British American Tobacco South Africa’s (BATSA) respective arguments for and against the appeal were heard virtually in mid-February.
The Western Cape High Court’s ruling was arguably humiliating to Dlamini-Zuma who had scored a victory over an earlier challenge of the ban brought by Fair Trade Independent Tobacco Association (Fita).
Fin24 previously reported that even though the government’s legal challenge was not motivated by any plans to reintroduce a cigarette ban, there were “certain constitutional issues” raised in the BATSA ruling that needed to be addressed and clarified by a higher court.
The government believed that there was a reasonable prospect that if the appeal was allowed, the Supreme Court of Appeal would clear the conflicts between certain aspects in the Fita case that was dismissed by the High Court in Pretoria and the BATSA case which was upheld by the Western Cape High Court.
Tobacco giant the BATSA, which took the COGTA to Court in May and eventually scored a victory in December, said it will publish a statement on Tuesday to respond to the latest development.
News24.com | FIFA favours Patrice Motsepe for CAF presidency

Patrice Motsepe (Gallo Images)
FIFA have asked three candidates to back South Africa’s Patrice Motsepe in the up-coming Confederation of African Football (CAF) presidential election, a source close to one of the candidates told AFP.
The previous incumbent Ahmad Ahmad was banned for breaches of FIFA’s ethical code, but has had the ban suspended by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
World body FIFA are keen for a fresh start in Africa, the source said.
Motsepe is a South African mining billionaire and owner of reigning domestic champions Mamelodi Sundowns.
According to the source, Augustin Senghor of Senegal and Ahmed Yahya of Mauritania are open to the idea of backing Motsepe and becoming vice-presidents themselves.
Jacques Anouma of Ivory Coast would be offered a roll as advisor to Motsepe.
“Motsepe is FIFA’s preferred candidate, they want someone new and not implicated in the former presidency,” the source said.
“They want a better image so they can attract investors and sponsors.”
FIFA have yet to reply to AFP’s request for comments.
The CAF Presidential election is scheduled to be held in Rabat, Morocco on 12 March..
