How TV Finally Returned to Afghanistan After 30 Years of Censorship
Found on Wired on Thursday, 10 October 2013
The Network tells the story of TOLO TV, the first independent television network created in Afghanistan to fill the media void created by 30 years of war, repression and censorship. Since businessman Saad Mohseni first launched TOLO TV in 2004, the network has transformed from a nine-person operation to a staff of 900, filming and broadcasting everything from news reporting and travel shows to singing competitions and soap operas.
When you look at the TV these days it makes you wonder if it's such a great achievement.
