Egypt's media authority warned journalists that it was monitoring coverage to ensure they abide by 'professional codes' amid a rare burst of protests against President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.
Egypt's media authority warned journalists Sunday that it was monitoring coverage to ensure they abide by"professional codes" amid a rare burst of protests against President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi. The warning came hours after the latest small protest was dispersed by police in clouds of tear gas.
In its statement issued Sunday, the State Information Service, which accredits foreign media representatives, said it has"carefully monitored" the coverage of the protest. But social media has also been vital for getting out authentic videos of protests, since they are the only venue not dominated by the government. Nearly all newspapers and television channels in Egypt are under the sway of the government or military and have given almost no coverage to the protests. In recent years, Egypt has imprisoned dozens of reporters and occasionally expelled some foreign journalists.
Ali has alleged his contracting business witnessed the largescale misuse of public funds in military-run projects building luxury hotels, presidential palaces and a tomb for el-Sissi's mother, who died in 2014.
