DStv has 24/7 news channels, like BBC News, CNN, SkyNEWS, and some assorted financial channels, CNBC, Bloombery et al.
While channel hopping, I discovered that Multichoice has added new channels. One is CCTV9 (ch 106) and RT (ch 108), and Euronews (ch 61)
CCTV9 is English news channel from China.
RT is Russia Today, a English news channel from Russia.
Euronews is a sad European attempt to challenge CNN. In true European fashion, it comes in numerous languages.
I’ve sent an email to Multichoice asking them to add another channel to counter the obvious bias of those channels. The channel in question is FOX News. I am still awaiting for them to get back to me.
The odds are in favour to alJhiad al-Jazeera English channel being added to DStv line up than FOX News.
There is no conservative daily or weekly newspaper in South Africa. That’s very unfortunate. Never mind about those TV news channels.
