INFORMATION MEDIA
Since independence the mass media have served as channels for
the dissemination of information supporting various political
parties (during of parliamentary periods) or official government
views (during the the years of military rule). Radio, an important
medium of mass communication in the country's vast territory,
has remained virtually a government monopoly, and television broadcasting
been a complete monopoly. The official Sudan News Agency (SUNA),
first established in 1971, distributed news about the country
in Arabic, English, and French to foreign and domestic services.
