Daily briefing (afternoon) — Thursday, 11 June 2026

Thursday's talk radio was dominated by the Cleveland mass shooting and its links to illegal mining, while anti-immigration tensions reached a new pitch with hundreds of Nigerians being repatriated. The Madlanga Commission's drug-bust testimony, Bafana Bafana's World Cup opener against Mexico, and a striking conversation about publishing in indigenous languages rounded out a day where hard news, sport and culture all jostled for airtime.
