CBS News became part of the South African story when in 1985, foreign correspondent Allen Pizzey reported on a police operation in which officers hiding in a crate on a truck bed opened fire on anti-apartheid activists. Three people, including two children, were killed. CBS News was subsequently forced to leave South Africa for airing the report.
