List the fields of broadcasting and telecommunication which are regulated by
means of statutes. [15] 2.1 A newspaper publishes a report regarding a
prisoner who has escaped from prison. The photograph of a well-known actor
is accidentally published next to the report, which creates the impression that
he is the escaped prisoner. The actor threatens to institute proceedings for
defamation and the newspaper publishes an apology in the next issue. May
the actor institute proceedings for defamation against the owner of the
newspaper? Discuss fully.
Question 1.1
(a) Types of Licences Available for Broadcasting Purposes
There are several types of licenses that the Independent Communications Authority of South
Africa (ICASA) issues for broadcasting:
1. Commercial Broadcasting Licences: Granted to private entities that aim to provide
content for commercial purposes, such as television or radio stations that generate
revenue through advertising.
2. Community Broadcasting Licences: Designed for non-profit community-based
broadcasters that serve the interests of a particular community. These broadcasters often
focus on local issues and are typically funded by donations, grants, or limited advertising.
3. Public Broadcasting Licences: Issued to public service broadcasters like the South
African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), which is mandated to serve the public interest
by providing educational, informative, and entertainment content without prioritizing
commercial objectives.
