Is our international television coverage lopsided?
When perusing through the channels, it seems so.
I am not aware of Pio TV telecast but am aware of Dialog TV.
Far too many channels providing the western outlook on world affairs. Australian ABC, BBC, CNN, France 24 and Euro news.
Hardly any news from the other side of the world.
CGTN & Al Jazeera try to give us a different view point, but nothing from the biggest country in the world ~Russia.
To get a objective view point of the world, the viewer must be afforded a balanced TV coverage.
Let the viewer make up his or her mind. It’s not up to the server to decide that.
Therefore I suggest RT channel be permitted to telecast on our shores once again as it was before. The outcome of global wars is not for servers to decide.
All we ask is:
let us have a balanced coverage of the world.
At the moment it is lacking!
