  • damcqueen David McQueen (@damcqueen) reported

    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..

    Note: the Freeview service obtains its feed from the satellite broadcast.

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

    @Dez45346395 @alan_shaefer EU ban means Luxembourg based SES shut down their feed of RT. Sky and FreeSat receive their feed from SES, it's likely that Freeview received from the same source.

    @FreeviewTV is freeview broken in Cheshire ??

  • pandorasrockbox Miryam Pan D'ora Rae ~ PandorasRockBox (@pandorasrockbox) reported

    @FreeviewTV why has RT been removed from freeview? We live in a democracy where we should be able to hear all sides to a narrative, even if we don't agree with it. Are we going down the Covid route of one sided info? Let us choose what to watch and

  • PartickDriver Inde-Car Gordon Ross (@PartickDriver) reported

    @Dan_Dawson65 @graeme_from_IT Not local Freeview channels. They're not classed public service broadcasters. Content is not regulated in the same way. Broadcasting Scotland news content already exceed ofcom standards incidentally.

  • DJMidarezaki DJ Midarezaki, Esq. 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇨🇦🇭🇰🇹🇼 (@DJMidarezaki) reported

    @graeme_from_IT @Ofcom Looks like events have overtaken themselves. With the EU banning the channel thus cutting off the Astra satellite uplink, it's down for Sky & Freesat viewers (and YouTube has blocked the channel for EU & UK viewers), and that disconnection appears to have also affected Freeview.

    @paganpirate @JR66112852 RT is down on UK Freeview, sky and BT channels, not just YT

    The BBC news at this time in history is awful, intriguing and compulsive all at the same time. I'm on Freeview.
