SABC1 with that kind of viewership, how come they battle to attract advertisers? Even ETV is outsmarting them in terms of revenue and they have SABC1, 2 and 3 and not to mention their radio channels.

There must be something wrong with the LSM that watches SABC1.

Some people say its Generubbish but look at the ratings, and etv is doing something right.

But where is Isidingo?
