Resolved Mis- or disinformation
Outcome
Not upheldOverview
The complaint is about a representative of a political party said to be spreading misniformation.
Background & Outcome
The idea that Black people are the first vaccine test subjects is inaccurate, and it's difficult to understand the logic in that argument, both in terms of science and politics. Like the DCC stated : Whether Malema's comments should be viewed as misinformation or as something else requires thought. The content represents a politically charged use of an untruthful (and possibly anti-semitic) narrative.
