The Wimpish Media

The silence of African leaders over Zimbabwe's violent eviction of slum dwellers is Culpable. The trouble with Africans is that the fear government, why the silence. This form of complicity is an organised form of human rights abuse at the highest level.

Let's get the facts, what is going on? I do not believe everything the western media potrays about Africa. The western media is just as bad in the way they are exploiting a small southern African country to achieve the big propaganda picture.

Africans normally have a huge distrust for westerners, I'm personally not surprised by the silence. Yet, I think, African leaders can seize this moment to prove their weight.

Let's not exploit the poor just to prove a point to the western media. The west is not addressing the war in Congo, In Congo, 1,000 die per day: Why isn't it a media story? . The are more people deing in congo than Zimbabwe. Where are you media guys bigwigs? Where is the BBC, CNN, FoxNews, et al. Shame on the lot of you! Silent on Congo and loud on Zimbabwe.
