Earlier this week I heard the news that Ofcom, the uk communications watchdog had withdrawn PressTVs UK license. They cited some bullshit fine and pointed at Iranian editorial oversight.
Fuck you Ofcom, and the decision tree that led to this. I hope you rot in a Shepherd's Bush.
Sometimes acts of evil epistemicide, the killing of ways of knowing, occur that are strategic and have impacts far into the future. Like about 10 years ago when UK Zionists put Hamas on a terrorist list. I wonder if this is one of those instances, or if its actually that important in the general pattern of our maturing processes.
The human rights bitches have had their knives out for PressTV for a while. When I would visit a house with a TV and facility to view the channel, I would make sure I would have a look. Good stuff on a budget and in the context of a lot of drivel and developmentia. Presstv lived in a tv ecology that included Channel S, Peace TV, Aljazeera and Channel 4.
What I liked is that they would take our parents opinions, ie the truth, and run with them as far as they could. None of that white veneering that media workers of colour have to serve us under the duress of white structures of power. None of that dependence on advertising that infantalises other outlets.
Zindabad PressTV, britons are enslaved by the BBC.
