Anyone who is anyone in media follows Prof Anton Harber's blog The Harbinger. A former distinguished editor of the Mail and Guardian, Harber is now head of Journalism and Media Studies at Wits and an influential commentator on the South African media landscape.
His blog posts don't pull their punches and he dishes it out to all and sundry. Occasionally his excellent media contacts see him dishing up a scoop of his own.
If you want to keep your finger on the pulse of SA media this is where you want to be. The Harbinger is independent, sometimes cutting, sometimes kind... it's a great industry blog and gets the thumbs up.
The only critique I would have is that sometimes his blogging goes in fits and starts, like he is building up a head of steam before letting loose a flood of posts (is that a mixed metaphor? Sorry, Prof!)
