This is not the first time e.tv has taken a communications minister to court on analogue switch-off. The constitutional court in 2022 ruled in favour of e.tv and others, finding that former communications minister Khumbudzo Ntshavheni had failed to consult with industry stakeholders including e.tv, Media Monitoring Africa and others before deciding to set a date for switch-off. E.tv owner eMedia has accused Malatsi of making the same mistake as his predecessor.
