  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @Ossyref I know but it’s not on Freeview. Not everyone has YouTube for TV or ability to watch on app. We ok as have Virgin but it’s still crap they ain’t showing it for others.

    @chloesammike @andywigmore @KayBurley Don't worry you can still get Sky news on channel 132 on your Freeview box. Thick ****.....

    RT just stopped transmission on Freeview. Increasingly detached from reality in last few years and unwatchable this week, but the danger of censoring news is it works both ways. Now all indie media in Moscow has been shut down and western media will be harder to see. Who judges..

  • ukdtt UK Terrestrial TV (@ukdtt) reported

    Apparently RT is now closed down on #Freeview.

  • alan_shaefer Alan Shaefer🇺🇦 🗽💙🧡💜 #FBNHS #JohnsonOut #PATH (@alan_shaefer) reported

    RT no longer broadcasting on Freeview, just the sign "This service is currently unavailable." Tech problem? Hacked?

  • lanerobertlane Robert Falla-Louvét 🔭🪐🚀 (@lanerobertlane) reported

    @scottygb @FloraCarmichael @alistaircoleman Freeview feed seemed to go to Aqiva via the Hotbird satellite, since RT on freeview went down when that feed was cut, as opposed to when the Astra 2 satellite (carrying sky/freesat’s seed) dropped it.

  • tvlive TV Live 🇺🇦 (@tvlive) reported

    BREAKING: RT has now been shut down completely on Freeview.

  • StevieHemmings Steven Hemmings - License to till 💙 (@StevieHemmings) reported

    @richardxxx4 @Noundela1 Are you getting it via internet or TV service such as Freeview, Sky etc.

  • clayton_mick mick clayton (@clayton_mick) reported

    @georgegalloway You are not wrong. Just checked. Service not available on my Freeview. Britain now a police state. Fascism has arrived what the Luftwaffe failed to do. RIP Britain as a democracy.

  • michahistoire Micha Histoire 🇱🇨 (@michahistoire) reported

    Wow they really took down RT off freeview as well, I thought it was only going to go down on Sky

  • SillyFool11 Filly Sool (@SillyFool11) reported

    @Lorien_MI @RT_com I'd assume you'd also support an official ISIS TV channel on freeview?

  • RichieUK_TTV Richie #SaveNeighbours (@RichieUK_TTV) reported

    @a516digital Maybe that’s what Freeview is using as the service for RT HD went blank for a good few seconds before returning
