It was the first daily paper in southern Africa, and soon became one of the principal newspapers of the Cape.〔Shaw, Gerald, ''The Cape Times: An Informal History'', Cape Town: David Philip, 1999.〕 Modelled on ''The Times'', its primary target was the poor working class, as it attempted to expose early government corruption. Later bought by Irish group Independent News and Media, the South African portion, including the Cape Times, was sold to Sekunjalo Investments (Independent News and Media SA) in 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cape Times」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
