Default South African "Pirate" Station Shut Down

Ah, yes... the wonders of Communist-run South Africa... continually
deny a license to a White radio station and then shut it down because
it is "operating illegally", all the time whining to the media that
birthday and social announcements are a "racist" broadcast!

============================================

"Racist" Radio Shut Down

http://antiracistlosers.blogspot.com...shut-down.html


The Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) has
shut down and confiscated the broadcast equipment of the only radio
station catering to Afrikaner people in the country.

Although the official reason for Klub100 being shut down is because it
was broadcasting without a license, ICASA official Lydia de Souza
whined incessently to Reuters and the ever-so politically correct BBC
about the station broadcasting "racist" material. "The station was run
by pirates," de Souza said.

What is considered "racist" broadcasting material remains unclear but
because Klub100 was set up and run by and for White Afrikaners, the
very nature of the station could be considered "racist" under the
viciously anti-White regime ruling South Africa.

The station was set up in Orania, a haven for Afrikaners who took
refuge in a disused settlement in the semi-arid Northern Cape in the
hopes of making it the center of a Volkstaat (Afrikaner people's
state). The Communist ANC-regime is attempting to destroy efforts to
create an Afrikaner homeland through redistricting the area into a
neighboring non-white district.

ICASA spokesman Sebastian Meyer said the regulatory commission was
investigating charges that Club 100 was broadcasting political
propoganda. "A resident laid a complaint because they say they are
using propaganda language on the radio they were feeling very
uncomfortable with. We're just going to do a further investigation on
our side and a course of action will be announced within seven days,"
Meyer said.

Orania's management said Club 100 had repeatedly applied for a
broadcast license and was merely holding tests, which consisted of
birthday and social announcements, not political propoganda or "racist"
comments. At no time was the station officially broadcasting, Orania
management said in a statement, which also rejected the "racist"
charges "because it is not the policy of the (Orania) management to
allow the broadcast of any racist or anti-government comments.".
