My cuzin tells me he took away parts of the country and put in under himself n formed a small country, and that was on the 28th March and if he was going to be in SA on the 28th March it will seem like he is celebrating the years he has taken that part of the country.Not sure how tru this is

Desmond Tutu is crying??

Catch 22, yes, but it is a slap in the face to people of da struggle! Why couldnt they just move the conference date? Can Nelson plz make a statement!

I think that the whole program was a total mess. Debra did not handle the situation as an impartial journalist should. When she spoke to Tutu she allowed him his say but kept on interfering when Jordan tried to say something about the issue. I now know that she will not vote ANC since she was not impartial in this program. Maybe it is time for another journalist to take over.

crunchie
31 Mar 2009 23:27

O yes, what I should also mention is that a good journalist should state the facts and alow a fair response to the facts which she did not.

Teeza i didn't watch the show....was busy writing my article.......Tutu in general likes attention........especially as he grows older......why the crying? I think he feels bad if he is not featured on TV once a month.........The Dalai Lami issue is done now we should move on......and try to help Zim for starters.....remember i also was not happy at the government refusing his VISA........but really now......lets focus on other things....Dalai Lami can come and visit after 2010......

Cruchie - Debra is never impartial, hence i don't waste my time watching her program.....for goodness sake, she's a Snuki Zikalala of ETV...why can't she do office job like the other Heads of News? Imagine Snuki hosting Interface??????

Cande

true that Crunchie, its almost as if Debra goes there with her mind made up on what she supports & what she is against. So there is no point if she is taking sides, she is supposed to be neutral

I thought the programme was awesome! Bishop Tutu has always held my respect. Jordan didnt get many words in edgeways - but the ones he did, revealed the unthinking jargon he had lined up viewers. I could understand the interviewer feeling emotional, actually! After all we're watching our government attempting to pull South Africa with them into the dumps. Come on South Africans let your heart speak out! I mean heart, not insecurity, fear, anger, greed, hopelessness - but heart - find it if you've forgotten where it is
