"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg to oppose this Bill, and particularly Clause 38. If this was the law when the story of King David was written in the Bible, when he sent Uria to the front of the Army so that he could be killed in order to take over his wife, I have no doubt that the journalists then would have been punished under this law. Clause 38(1) says: - \"The media shall, in a free and independent manner and style, inform the public on issues of public interest and importance in a fair, accurate and unbiased manner whilst distinctly isolating opinion from fact and avoiding offensive coverage of nudity, violence and ethnic biases.\" Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the reason I raised the issue of King David is because as you would recall, the two tribes of Israel were at war. This then, would have outlawed the story that appears in the Bible. If this was law when the Queen of Sheba travelled to Israel to go and pay tribute to King Solomon, and they ended up doing what they did, then writing that story would have been outlawed."
