引用刘海明 2012-1-21 13:08: LONDON — Britain’s media regulator revoked the broadcast license for the Iranian state-owned television network Press TV on Friday, saying the network had failed to address concerns over its editorial independence and had not paid a fine.

The network, shown here on satellite television, was set to cease broadcasting almost immediately. A “channel unavailable” message was displayed by Sky, the satellite broadcaster that had hosted Press TV, Friday night. It was not immediately clear whether the shutdown was widespread.

The move follows a marked chilling of relations between Britain and Iran after hundreds of Iranian protesters stormed the British Embassy in Tehran last November. Britain closed its embassy in Tehran and expelled all Iranian diplomats in London.

The media regulator, Ofcom, said Friday that the decision followed an unresolved dispute over an interview that Press TV broadcast with the Newsweek journalist Maziar Bahari. Mr. Bahari was imprisoned in Iran in June 2009 in the tumult that followed the disputed election, and he was released in October 2009.

The regulator said that the interview had been conducted under duress and that Press TV’s editorial operations were beholden to Tehran, and it fined the network about $155,700. The network proved “unwilling and unable to pay,” Ofcom said in a statement, and had failed to address the issue of its independence.

Press TV said Ofcom had not responded to letters from its chief executive, and it called the move “a blatant example of censorship and in violation of freedom of speech.” It told the BBC that Ofcom was “the media arm of the royal family,” and on its Web site it published anguished comments it said were from viewers outraged at the shutdown. One, who was identified only as Sharon, said the regulator was “obeying their freemason masters and doing what they are told.”
