SUBJECT: MEDIA REPORT MOYO THREATENS STUDIO 7; HARARE
Information Minister Jonathan Moyo has vowed to silence
Studio 7, a Voice of America (VOA) news program on
Zimbabwe. Delivering a speech at the launch of New ZIANA,
a multi-media state organization charged with publishing
pro-government and ZANU PF information, last week, Moyo is
quoted as saying "Studio 7 will die. It faces death. They
think we are sleeping, we want to see where they are going
with Studio 7."
