With all the media coverage surrounding SABC’s decision to not broadcast violent protests, the protests that have followed and Icasa’s ruling for SABC to lift the censorship of their content, it is no wonder the public has taken to social media to express their feelings on the matter.

The purpose of the meme is normally to criticise the topic or highlight a certain aspect of the topic.
Here are a collection of memes which comment on the SABC saga:
