Shafaq News- Baghdad
Iraq’s Communications and Media Commission (CMC) on Sunday barred
political analyst Bashir al-Hujaimi from appearing on all local and foreign
media outlets operating in Iraq for 30 days.
According to a document, the commission issued the ban over alleged
violations related to the publication of “false and misleading material,” as
well as failures to uphold “accuracy, integrity, and transparency” in the
transfer of information.
The CMC also warned that media outlets hosting al-Hujaimi during
the suspension period would face legal consequences.
Earlier this month, the body imposed a 60-day television ban on
political analyst Hussein al-Shalakh over violations of broadcasting
regulations, and suspended television personality Farid Majid for 30 days after
remarks made during a sports program were deemed “an insult to the divine.”
