Seasoned journalist, Dan Moyane, joins eNews Channel

Says Editor-in-Chief, Debora Patta of Moyane: “He is articulate and confident; a strong and practiced communicator who establishes good relationships at all levels. Dan has an excellent understanding of broadcasting and political trends. We are delighted that someone of his calibre is joining our already impressive line-up.”

Moyane has also successfully hosted two episodes of The Big Debate, a new show on the eNews Channel in which robust debates are staged before the public.

He has worked in the radio broadcasting industry for 28 years (from 1980 to 2008), 11 of which were spent in the public broadcaster in Mozambique, nearly 15 of which in a private commercial broadcaster in South Africa and nearly two of which in South Africa's public broadcaster.

During this career, Moyane worked his way up from a trainee reporter to a news editor, from a newsreader to a talk show host and from a station manager to executive chairperson of Primedia Broadcasting.

On joining the eNews Channel, Moyane says, “With South Africa's elections just a month away, this is an exciting time to be getting back into journalism. I have wished for a long time after many years of radio journalism that one day I would get an opportunity to anchor television news and get behind the news on a regular daily basis.

“This is a great opportunity for me and I look forward to working with the great team of news professionals that give the eNews Channel its edge, independence and integrity.”

Additional important changes at the channel include Iman Rappetti, who moves to the weekday early morning slot with Macfarlane Moleli, between 06h00 and 09h00 and Jeremy Maggs who will host an additional hour between 18h00 and 19h00.

Here is how the line-up is going to change:
