An international lawyer says the English-language news channel, Press TV, should take legal action against the communications satellite services provider, Intelsat, over its latest decision to take Iranian channels off the air.
In an exclusive interview with Press TV on Wednesday, Paul Wolf stated that the Tehran-based news channel reserves the right to free speech, and the recent move by the Luxembourg-based company to suspend its services to Iranian television channels is a clear example of censorship.
He further noted that Press TV should take the case to a court and sue Intelsat over its measure to cease the signal of a news channel that has millions of viewers.
Wolf added that Press TV must explore all available means to win the case and expressed hope that the channel would receive massive support in the case.
On June 19, Intelsat announced its decision to stop the services to Iranian channels including Press TV, citing the illegal sanctions against the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) as pretext.
Intelsat said that it has been ordered by the US government to avoid extending IRIB?s license, noting that it will stop providing services as of July 1.
