Arab and Egyptian Satellite drop Iranian station
The Middle East's two main satellite operators have dropped an Arabic-speaking Iranian television station, a decision described by the broadcaster on Wednesday as an attempt to stifle Iran's voice in the region.
The Arabic-speaking Al-Alam, based in Iran, said the decision Wednesday was politically motivated. Al-Alam has been critical of Arab governments. Farsi is the official language of Iran. The station is carried by Saudi Arabia-hosted ArabSat and the Egyptian-owned NileSat and reaches millions of Arabic speaking viewers in over 100 countries. (AP)
