The Innovators with Tom Kennedy

#3 : Styli Charalambous, Daily Maverick: Behind the #GuptaLeaks Special.

Episode Summary

Styli Charalambous (@DailyMaverick) is the CEO and publisher of DailyMaverick.com. In early June Scorpio, the Daily Maverick’s newly launched investigative unit, and amaBhungane, the independent investigative non-profit, began publishing stories from a much, much wider trove: a few hundred gigabytes of information containing between 100,000 and 200,000 unique e-mails and a host of other documents. That became called the #GuptaLeaks. In this episode, I sit with Styli and find out what went on behind the scenes and what it meant for the role of the media and big corporates in South Africa today.
