“…Weer is dit nie duidelik of dit Tomaselli/Du Preez of net eersgeneoemde is wat hier aan die woord is nie. Elders maak Du Preez 'n soortgelyke stelling in 'n resensie met betrekking tot die redakteurskap van P J Cillie (Vrye Weekblad, 1990.09.14) Soos 'n objektiewe waarnemer waarskynlik sou k~n beweer dat Tomaselli, om relevant te bly, sy wetenskaplike hantering van die apart he idsideologie en die invloed daarvan op toekomstige mediakwessies binne die konteks van die post-2 Februarie 1990-periode sal moet plaas, Iyk dit ook noodsaaklik dat sy denke oor die nou reeds taamlik wyd geboekstaafde "ontvoogding" van die Afrikaanse pers (vergelyk byvoorbeeld Van Deventer, 1989en Vosloo, 1989) ook 'n tyds-en evalueringsverskuiwing sal moet ondergaan. 'n Betreklik kursoriese oorsig van Afrikaanse persberigte oor apartheid van die afgelope tyd in die knipseldiens van die Instituut vir Eietydse Geskiedenis in Bloemfontein behoort selfs vir die mees "geslote" navorser op die onbehoudbaarheid van bogenoemde stelling te dui.…”

COMMUNICARE encourages the scientific debate. Our last contribu tion is published in response to the article of Tomaselli & Louw In 9(1), who questioned some of the predie tions regarding post-apartheid media In an earlier article by the author pub lished In 8(1). These are his repiles... Prof Keyan Tomaselli, Director of the Cultural Studies Unit at the University of Natal (Durban), is without doubt one of most prolific writers in the field of South African media and communication studies. This is not a matter of c tention; what is at stake in this review article Is the way in which Tomaselll deals with statements and facts in his pub lications. It is argued that Tomaselli Is prone to state a debatable point as a "scientific fact" and then proceeds to build a whole theoretical argument on this and similar "facts". It is fur ther argued that his article: 'Vrye Weekblad' and post-apartheld mania; what to do with the press? is a case In point.
