Journalists get a lot of flak; unfortunately, it comes with the job. However, there is only so much one can tolerate, and rightfully so.
Incredible female journo Sli Masikane took to Twitter with a spicy clip of a moment where a salty advocate told her to “voetsek”. Sli made it clear that this level of disrespect she will not tolerate!
“I can tolerate a lot things… Disrespect isn’t one of them…”

Citizens of Mzansi weigh in, grilling the advocate for her unprofessionalism
The people of Mznasi were right there with Sli. This advocate was on some entitlement bubble that should have been popped. Our girl handled herself with grace and fans were proud.
Take a look at some of the comments:
@ZiyandaNgcobo said:
“I’m so sorry Sli! You definitely handled it like the professional you are. One cannot say the same for this advocate. What bothers me is that you were so calm, minding your own business and were moving out the way…You didn’t deserve that!”
@Blissed_up said:
“She asked nicely though… and nothing happened, she like every person had a right to be annoyed.”
@DSSteyn said:
“The response is uncalled for. but surely you must ask permission to have someone in your shot? Some privacy rights do still trump airtime.”
