... the impact that satellite television was having in the conservative country.

Oh come on BreitBart, The Islamic Republic of Iran is NOT conservative, it is a reactionary theocracy! Use of terms deriving from European / Western political traditions in describing societies that are antithetical to those traditions is a misuse of the language. As an example, can anyone name me a 'liberal' country in the Islamic world?

From what I’ve heard, the people are conservative even though the government is not. A bit like America.
