The White South

Frank Barton

Chapter 9 in The Press of Africa, 1979, pp 185-243 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Two things prevent South Africa from being a total police state: the judiciary, which though obliged to administer laws made by racial fanatics, generally does so fairly and often humanely, and the press, which though also bound by the ruthless philosophy of apartheid, still has more freedom than newspapers in any other part of the Continent.
