"Dateline Soweto" documents the working lives of black South African reporters caught between the mistrust of militant blacks, police harassment, and white editors who - fearing government disapproval - may not print the stories these reporters risk their lives to get. William Finnegan revisited several of these reporters during the May 1994 election and describes their post-apartheid working experience in a new preface and epilogue.
