QUESTION 1
The act which does NOT pertain to the print and media industry, in general, is the …
(1) Imprint Act
(2) Competition Act
(3) Legal Deposit Act
(4) ICASA Act
Fourie (2008) identifies the following as pertaining to the general wellbeing of the
media: the Imprint Act, the Competition Act and the Legal Deposit Act.
QUESTION 2
When it comes to the issue of challenges and the regulation of the South African
media, you are requested to identify the INCORRECT option, which does not
address the challenges and goals of the South African media policy.
The incorrect option is … .
(1) independence
(2) state intervention
(3) the market
(4) public interest
The South African media policy aims to be independent and self-regulatory. It also
serves to strike a balance between the needs of the market and the need to allow
the media to perform its cultural function (Fourie 2008). The policy seeks to be a
framework that is in the public interest.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 2, "state intervention". The policy seeks
minimal state interventions in the performance of the media industry. It encourages
independence from the state.

The Library of Parliament and the National Library of South Africa are the

of South Africa.
The correct answer is option 4.
ICASA, the SABC and the HSRC are not directly listed as crucial to the functioning
of the Legal Deposit Act.

The Act aims to make provision for the classification of film and publication
content.

and Publication Act

complaints.
QUESTION 6
