eNCA abruptly cancels Meet the Media

As quickly as it came, it is now gone. eNCA has abruptly canceled the excellent Meet the Media with Eusebius McKaiser.

The show, which took to the air on July 3rd this year, was launched in response to then SABC COO, Hlaudi Motsoeneng, canceling all SABC programming analysing the South African media landscape.

Not even Mckaiser knows exactly why the show was cancelled. He responded to a tweet with, "Sorry guys I'm as much in the dark as you. Thanks for tuning in. @AntonHarber [eNCA editor in chief] might explain to you."

In a statement about the show's cancellation, eNCA says the show has "ended its current season on eNCA. In the new year, eNCA will be exploring new concepts for their programming to align with 2017's political calendar. eNCA looks forward to working with Eusebius on new projects in 2017"

These new projects the channel aims to launch will be announced towards the end of February.
