State television bans songs featuring Gen Fonseka

We, “People's Fonseka2010” are distressed to note that powerful persons have ordered state owned Rupavahini and ITN television channels have been forbidden from broadcasting patriotic songs featuring General Sarath Fonseka.

Over the past two months, there have been no songs showing the Great General. Instead politicians and retired colonels are showed in loops.

We took measures to find out about the hidden agenda.

Several employees of both stations have told us, on condition of anonymity, that “higher” officials have ordered them to stop broadcasting clips showing General Fonseka.

Even interviews with the great General have been forbidden.

Song by Chandrika Siriwardena have also been banned, because they often praise General Fonseka's character.

It is understood that political elements are seeking to character assassinate the General in order to reduce his popularity.
