DStv red-faced after Madiba obit gaffe
Cape Town - A mistake on a DStv channel caused momentary panic on Tuesday night, by suggesting that former president Nelson Mandela had died.

A mini obituary, titled Remembering Madiba 1918 – 2013, aired at least twice on Universal Channel 117. It featured facts about Mandela’s life.

Mandela has been in hospital since before the Easter Weekend and is receiving treatment for pneumonia.

Troy Martens, the spokeswoman for the ANC Women’s League, on Wednesday morning expressed her disgust at the insert. She was still unsure whether it had been a mistake or a legitimate insert with an unfortunate title and timing. [snip]
