Who is playing havoc with the Zimbabwe dollar? Zudha in the Rhodesian days was corrupted Shona for South African coins. Because they were useless to Zimbabweans, the word was transformed to mean anything useless including people. But South Africans coins, which people in Rhodesia used to throw away, have become gold.

Lies,Lies, Lies It touts itself as Zimbabwe's independent news agency. But it does not even operate from Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe Online operates from South Africa. The reasons: the "general decimation of media in Zimbabwe", the enactment of "a vicious media law which enables the government to licence media houses and journalists to do their work".But some of its stories may be untrue.

Coverage of Zimbabwe leaves a lot to be desired Can you imagine American politics being dictated by the New York Post or the National Enquirer? Or British politics being dictated by the Sun? This is almost unthinkable. But the world has blindly accepted that Zimbabwe's politics can be dictated by tabloids and internet publications.

It's too early to predict Mugabe's downfall Zimbabwe has been making headlines worldwide for nearly two weeks. President Robert Mugabe who has been at the helm for 27 years, is at the centre stage, after his government bashed opposition leaders and killed at least one activist.
