Those foreigners are so gay? Or those gays are so foreign? Either way Eyewitness News... made a bit of an oopsie.
Besides their apology, the offending Tweets have been deleted by the service, fortunately, we managed to quote them beforehand.
Reporter clearly having a bad day. Apologies for the incorrect spelling and words. She has been rapped over the knuckles.

What are they apologising for?
"@ewnreporter: #DeDoorns Pieterse says homophobic attacks by farm workers will take place if farmers employ foreign nationals." sorry what?
— Marc Evan Aupiais (@SACNSNew) May 11, 2013
Yes, we said sorry what too... in our quoting her...
We asked exactly what:
Either Eye Witness News has gays on the Brain, or a union leader is an idiot. Or he is onto what media care about most... attacks on gays...

And Eye Witness News again fumbled:
"@ewnreporter: #DeDoorns whoops sorry Zenophobic attacks :)" you mean Xenophobic attacks. GaysOnTheBrain?
— Marc Evan Aupiais (@SACNSNew) May 11, 2013
But all was sorted out as we also noted:
"@ewnreporter: Reporter clearly having a bad day. Apologies for the incorrect spelling and words. She has been rapped over the knuckles."
