Iranian Website: The Year Of Media Outlet Closures

In an article on the Iranian website Tabnak, which is identified with former Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) commander Mohsen Rezai, has crowned the Persian year that just ended the year of “the closure of media outlets critical of the government of [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad.”

Some of the 67 publications shut down by the Ahmadinejad government – and 27 in the past year alone – are Sharq, ILNA, Ham-Meyhan, and Baztab.

It also said that following government pressure, the administration of the ISNA and Fars news agencies were replaced.
