limited and others v national prosecuting authority and another an application made by enca multichoice and eyewitness news primedia to the high court in pretoria to broadcast the proceedings of the oscar pistorius murder trial to be held in the court from 3 to 20 march 2014 was opposed by the defence team 16 17 on 25 february 2014 mlambo ruled that the entire trial proceedings may be broadcast live via audio and that parts of the trial may be broadcast live via television subject to various restrictions to minimise any impact on the trial proceedings the parts that he permitted to be broadcast audiovisually were the opening and closing arguments the testimony of consenting state witnesses the judgement and the sentencing if applicable his ruling took into account the right to freedom of expression and the defendant s right to a fair trial his reasons for allowing live broadcasting of the trial included dispelling perceptions that the rich and famous receive preferential treatment from the justice system enabling public access to an unedited firsthand account of the trial and educating the public about criminal proceedings in general 18 19 20 21 the ruling was welcomed by members of the south african media who described it as a groundbreaking decision supporting freedom of expression freedom of the media open justice and democracy 19 22 in a cartoon by zapiro published in the times on 27 february 2014 pistorius is depicted walking a tightrope between the justice system representing the right to a fair trial and the media representing the public s right to know 23 in his judgement mlambo granted ultimate discretion regarding what may be broadcast to the presiding judge in the trial namely thokozile masipa 24 the trial was interrupted on the second day after it transpired that enca was showing a still photograph of a non consenting state witness onscreen while broadcasting her audio testimony masipa subsequently instructed the court that no photographs of any non consenting witnesses may be used in the media regardless of the source of the photographs 25 on 10 march 2014 masipa ruled that the forensic pathologist s post mortem evidence may not be broadcast live including verbatim tweeting and blogging 26 27 but reversed her ban on live tweeting and blogging the following day 28 a state witness was harassed telephonically after his cellphone number was read out in court during cross examination by the defence team on the second day of the trial 29 in his business day column published on 13 march 2014 caxton professor of journalism at wits university anton harber stated that the trial represents a turning point for local newspapers unable to compete with the speed and conversational nature of electronic media he also notes that the fact that the presiding judge has her finger on the off button for live broadcast is restraining the behaviour of the media 30 references edit 1 2 3 the judges of the labour court
