The SABC now reaches over 20-million South Africans through 18 radio stations and three television stations, who spend an average of 3 hours per day watching SABC TV and 22 hours listening to SABC radio.
As a public service broadcaster SABC is obliged to provide a comprehensive range of distinctive programmes and services. It must inform, educate, entertain, support and develop culture and education and as far as possible secure fair and equal treatment for the various groupings in the nation and the country, while offering world-class programming on television and radio.
