[Swprograms] South African Coverage of Mandela's Passing

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

SAfm is the SABC's (South African Broadcasting Corporation) national English language network.  On the occasion of Nelson Mandela's passing, one would expect that it would be a source for a particularly unique, domestic assessment of Mr. Mandela's life by South Africans and coverage of the associated events and memorials.  SAfm streams its audio from its web site, as well as through various content amalgamators such as TuneIn.
