THE Independent Communications Authority of SA (Icasa) has granted pay channel
Top TV the rights to broadcast pornography on their station, the regulator said yesterday.
Gender organisation Women and Children Against Child Abuse (WMACA) expressed
shock at Icasa's decision.
"We at MMACA are shocked and appalled that Icasa has granted permission to
Top TV to broadcast pornography," said Luke Lamprecht, spokesman for the
organisation.
But, Top TV CEO Eddie Mbalo has -in a statement - hailed the Icasa green
light as "a victory for democracy and freedom of speech and choice in our
country".
The statement added: "What TopTV proposed in its application is that the
channels will be offered as a completely separate, stand-alone package to the
current TopTV channel offering. _
