NBC dare not sanction NTA under PDP. Who born dem...


Sai baba integrity!

Because APC and hate speech are 5&6

Does Raypower still exist? I am sure NBC doesn’t know too.

Opinionated:
You didn't give Ray Power? That is perhaps the most guilty station.

They should come and sanction Nairaland too!!

InvertedHammer:

/
Canadian law or Nigerian law?

NBC didn't cite the hate speech under contention.

/

What do you mean by Canadian law or Nigerian law??

Of course the hate speech will not be stated in the interview. (1) Different people said different things on different stations. (2) He said that the letters to the stations are on his desk. The infractions that each station committed will be stated in the letter to that particular station.

chiommy123:
Shouldn't these politicians be held responsible?

NBC is doing her work by holding the stations accountable. They have no power over politicians. Those who can hold politicians should do so

That anchor lady was just attacking atiku n obi as if she is a member of apc, I was surprised but I like how they both keep coming back anytime the lady tries to pull them down.

When she was busy attacking Buhari and Osibanjo you were not surprised ba?

She's only doing her job well.

That program is not only about Apc and PDP. Three other parties came there but you didnt accuse her of working for either of them

The woman couldn't hide her true nature anymore.. Behind her evil mask is an APC apologist.

Kadara is disgrace to true journalism. A presenter/journalist must be neutral.

Nwadiuto247:
How? Tell us the hate speeches, those who made them and when they made the hate speeches.
Let it not be that u are sanctioning them for allowing people who exposed the failures of this government to do so without shutting them up.

pretend to be sane for once jare.

NBC's job is to hold the stations responsible. They regulate the broadcast media, not the politicians.

There was an example that ocurred in Canada. Mike Tyson appeared on a TV show in Canada. He was in that region to support a charity event that the mayor was holding.

However, the mayor was being investigated for committing a crime and the TV host asked Tyson if it didn't look bad that Tyson, who was convicted of rape, was supporting another person that was accused of a crime.

The question annoyed Tyson and he started swearing on the show ( "You are a piece of sh*t". "F*ck you", etc).

The host tried to move on to another question, but Tyson kept swearing at him until they ended the interview.

The Canadian version of our NBC fined the TV station. They said that the TV station should have cut off Tyson after he swore the first time and that it was the TV station's fault for continuing the interview after Tyson swore the first time.

First, so-called “hate speech” is NOT barred or banned from the airwaves (TV/radio) in countries like Canada and the US.

On the contrary, the US Supreme Court has REPEATEDLY ruled that so-called “hate speech” is legally-protected speech under the First Amendment and therefore CANNOT be regulated. Furthermore, the US broadcasting regulator, the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has also specifically held (and publishes same on its materials) that it is “barred by law from trying to prevent the broadcast of ANY point of view.” This is how CIVILIZED advanced societies (which we are not looking like being interested in becoming one) handle a multiplicity and diversity of views - it allows each view to compete in a veritable marketplace of ideas, with any sanction being the public contempt and/or moral opprobrium that is visited on despicable viewpoints.

Accordingly, what you are referencing in respect of the Mike Tyson video is NOT so-called “hate speech” but rather words/terms/acts of an “indecent nature” that while they are actually NOT banned are merely REGULATED in respect of free-to-air television and radio stations (in the US, these used to be known as the original “Seven Dirty Words”), and thus can only be aired during certain specified time periods (usually when minors would normally be asleep or would ordinarily not be watching television. However, suffice it to note that these regulations are NOT applicable to cable, pay-tv or satellite radio, and thus the broadcast of any such “indecent” words/terms/acts are NOT regulated at all in respect of the latter media (i.e., pay, satellite and cable outlets).

Democracy can be very messy, but we cannot enjoy it’s full benefits if faceless bureaucrats and sundry ‘regulators’ administratively allot to themselves (because even the Nigerian Constitution actually supposedly protects the freedom of speech) the authority to arbitrarily chill free speech and/or to opaquely decide (usually AFTER-THE-FACT without notice) the boundaries of political or public discourse and debate.

You completely ignored what my post was about and then went on a long rant about something totally different. Her question was whether the NBC will sanction the politicians and my answer was that the NBC does not regulate or license politicians so it can't sanction them. Rather it regulates and broadcasters and therefore those are the people that it can sanction.

I gave an example to show that the Canadian broadcasters regulator sanctioned the TV station, rather than Mike Tyson, because it does not regulate Mike Tyson.

Are you saying that the NBC regulates politicians??

But you have to admit the interviewer was an ass for that comment.

Mike was probably thinking of how to knock him out without a law suit

Mike later appeared on a radio show and the hosts of the show asked him how far back would it have been when he would have punched the interviewer. Mike said that if that had happened 6 months to a year before, that he would have knocked the guy out.

He said that the thing that really annoyed him was that the guy was calling him brother and being all chummy before they went on air. The guy said that they had to stick together and all that, but the guy changed once they got on air.

Sometimes it seems presenters just want to provoke Mike with their silly questions.

Good thing he now has his temper under a lid
