LBC Offices in Saudi Arabia
The partly Saudi-owned LBC-TV's offices were closed down in Saudi Arabia. And no Arab media voice has been raised in support or solidarity with LBC except...the leftist Al-Akhbar newspaper. Hell, even LBC-TV did not say a word about the matter. Such is the dominance of the House of Saudi in Arab media. Last week, Al-Akhbar's CEO, comrade Ibrahim Amin, expressed solidarity with LBC-TV on LBC. The anchorwoman, Shada `Amr, quickly changed the subject.
