The Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) now regularly refers to Morgan Tsvangirai as “the leader of the MDC party” rather than “the Prime Minister” in news bulletins. Political analyst Bekithemba Mhlanga has claimed that, with an election marked for 2011, ZANU PF has entered election mode and ZBC, still tightly controlled by President Mugabe, helps enforce this agenda. Mugabe, in ZBC reports, has a number of titles, including “the President”, “The Head of State”, and “Commander-in-Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces”.
