Tehran, YJC. Official says that satellite channels have attracted part of society away from national media.

In an
interview with ISNA, Manager of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting
Channel 2 Ali Bakhshizadeh said in answer to the question what must be done in
order to attract people away from satellite channels "There is no doubt that
satellite channels have taken a part of our audience. I must say that the IRIB
has taken measures accordingly, especially in television.”
Bakhshizadeh
also hoped that the budget deficit in the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting
would be resolved with the new President, adding "Of course Mr. President will
have his own problems to deal with, but I hope that, with his broad outlook, he
will regard the IRIB in a special way so that problems are eliminated.”
I hope a new management trying to appease it's own people will lead the "national" media.
