Acting chief operating officer Hlaudi Motsoeneng says SABC has canned "The Big Debate" because of an editorial policy clash, not at NUM’s request.

The Right2Know Campaign will organise a protest at the SABC’s Johannesburg offices over the cancelling of current affairs talk show "The Big Debate".

SABC’s Kaizer Kganyago says "The Big Debate" talk show was incorrectly commissioned by SABC2 and was therefore cancelled.

The SABC has pulled talk show "The Big Debate" off air, just hours before it was due to be screened, with no clear reason being given.
