| Date | 19:29:20, July 06, 2006 CET | From | Socialist Party of Sekowo | To | Debating the National Media Law (NML) of 2249 |
| Message | I oppose this bill. I would be willing to accept a national television station, however having all television stations owned by the government would give it too much power and would enable it to crush dissenting voices if it so chose. |
