But the universe was having none of that. The news on the radio announced gleefully that uMalume was suing the media for defamation, for a South African record amount. And, rather like the Pound coin, the value kept changing.
Radio Highveld was to have been sued for R5Million. And then, they went and played the song again, clocking up another R2Million towards a downpayment against the Zuma National Debt.
The Cow couldn't help her bemusement. Most of the offending pieces against which action was being taken by uMalume were not pieces masquerading as fact - they were cartoons, opinion pieces, satire - yes, even the song. And the Cow couldn't understand how anyone who'd stated under oath that taking ashower protected him against HIV infection had much of a reputation to protect, anyway. Was it, she asked Gramsci, more damaging to one's reputation to state that wearing a skirt meant a woman was asking for sex - on the record in an open trial - or to have the newspapers report that one had said it?
