I would imagine there is, teddyearp, hope someone will enlighten us. There used to be a PLO radio station in Beirut.
And when I was there, if you tried to tune in radio stations from Arab countries they were all blocked somehow, yes, true, in 1970s.
I am in touch with some WB folks who obviously do have access to internet. I don't know if this is from their own homes? Obviously universities/colleges and libraries would have access, too.
But again my question is if the reverse is true or not? Anyone?
without electric or if stations were damaged in the conflict, many stations were nothing but static. People start shooting into the windows you drop the mic and head for cover. many stations only aired for a few hours a day, back then. When they were operating tv and radio stations might not air for more than four hours. It was not 24/7 like today. Your talking about more than 40 yrs ago. Even the US didn't have tv and radio stations running all day.
anyone remember these type of displays on the tv at night?
Today stations can be denied a frequency. Internet can also be blocked internally as in syria, iraq, iran. They did not want western information. Sites can be locked by a word or domain as well.
Our glorious leader Barack Hussein Obama wants a kill switch so he can preempt programming.
Yeah, he can be trusted.
