          Everyone knows that SA is going down exactly the same way as Zimbabwe, the last thing the good folks at the BBC want to admit is that St. Mandela set in motion a human tragedy.

                Broadcaster links to copies of stuff it's broadcast. Hardly a surprise, is it?

                “Only text counts” is a ridiculous position to take.
