MEDIAWATCH - Mandela's death in the media: the man becomes a myth

FRANCE 24 English 2013-12-05

Views 12

In tonight’s MediaWatch, we bring you some of the highlights of the tributes being paid to Nelson Mandela on social media but also how the man himself felt about being raised to "demi-god" status. We also look at how politicians have reacted and a certain degree of hypocrisy therein which has provoked the angry reaction of some observers who disagree with the mythologising of a man who was profoundly human.
