As the frenzy surrounding Oscar Pistorius’ trial reaches fever pitch, are ads like this warranted? DStv has dedicated an entire channel to the court case and the events surrounding it. It begs the question whether the media, at the expense of accuracy, are provoking the public and thus cashing in on the death of Reeva Steenkamp. Are they going too far? The opposing argument: it’s a murder trial, it’s 2014, and the people do want to know.
Where do you stand on DStv’s ad below? Do you think the media is sensationalizing the murder trial or does the public have the right to know the details of the trial as it develops? Give us your views in the comment section.
