| Message | Running one notional radio and TV station for vital information duties is an important part of the current policy concerning public information - one which does not in any way interfere with the freedom of the press and freedom of expression, thus changes are not justified. |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
