NASSIR Posted March 7, 2012 ...."speaks for power and for the rich, and against the powerless and the penniless. It speaks for oppressors and against the oppressed. The pursuit of freedom and justice must be the prime inspiration for a moral media society. But it is profit motive and alignment with rulers that guides Universal TV. You watch Universal TV and you realize we live in times far more depraved than Germany under the Nazis. UNIVERSAL TV: A PAY-PHONE By Mahado Sh. Dahir March 07, 2012 The One Cartoon Amin Amir Cannot Draw It is confirmed. Kinship matters, even to the genius. And the one thing Amin Amir, for all his objectivity and patriotism, would not do is draw a cartoon depicting Universal TV as a pay-phone. This, against the tragic reality that this TV, owned by Engineer Ahmed Abubaker, has lastly morphed into a dreadful pay-as-you-speak pulpit, after tentative equivocations at its infancy. Amir, the fearless and hugely popular cartoonist is the toast of millions of Somalis, who feel his brush paints their pain and predicament with striking candor. Yet, Amir would not put candor over consanguinity. He would not defile the canonic convention that you do not speak against one of your own. We, Somali’s, - even the few geniuses in our midst - cannot simply transcend this sickening belief system. It is a national entrapment, one which ensures we stay at the lowest stairs of the humanity ladder for a longtime to come. This is to be Somali, among other stupefying oddities.

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted March 7, 2012 Amiin Caamir sababta loo eedeynaayo ma garan kari. Mise Banaadiriga dhan hal qowmiyada laga wada dhigay miyaa. Amiin Caamir Reer Marko waaye, kaas kanaalkaas lehna Camuudi in uu yahay jeclahay oo Xamar ku dhashay. Yes, wali ma arkin Amiin Caamir oo sawirgacmeed ka sawiray kanaalkaas, still... Waa run, kanaalkaas qofkii lacag bixiyo lagama hadlo, inkastoo mar mar dadka ka soo qeybgalo dacaayadeyaan laakiin official ahaan wax kama sheego meelaha qaarkood, waxaana ka mid ah deegaanka Soomaali Galbeed iyo dulmiga ka dhaco lagama soo waramo. Kaliya officially sanctioned reports kasoo tabiyaan deegaankaas. Jabuuti likewise wax lagama sheegi karo. Qaarkood kalena waa maamul gobolleedyo laakiin kuwaas inay lacag bixiyaan igulama eko, cabsi darteeda waaye oo wariyaasha kasoo waramaayo ka cabsanaayo dadka maamulo deegaanadaas Soomaaliyeed.

NGONGE Posted March 8, 2012 A&T never gets tired but this time he got it wrong. Universal TV is no different to most other Somali TV stations. They are privately owned, mostly based in foreign lands and, therefore, the "moral" argument does not really apply to them. The only one that can be criticised here is Somaliland TV. He who singles out Universal has his own dirty agenda. Naga daaya. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
