The Editor’s Desk: Behind our apology to Minister Fikile Mbalula

Last week, we issued an unreserved apology to Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula. In this episode, Alec Hogg explains the background to the story and why Biznews has a policy of full right-of-reply. We also discuss the changes we have made to our model portfolio, explaining why we're rotating into South African stocks. Alec talks about some of the feedback he has received from the community on these changes. We finish up with a discussion on what the struggles of WeWork and Uber mean for the global investment landscape. – Felicity Duncan

In its six-year history, Biznews has made very few apologies for its coverage. Last week, however, we made a full and unreserved apology to minister Fikile Mbalula for a story we wrote in September. In this episode, Alec explains the philosophy behind Biznews and why we are proud to apologise when we are wrong.
