United Arab Emirates
Index
Provided the media do not criticize the ruling families
and
the government, they are relatively free. Abu Dhabi
publishes two
dailies, one in Arabic, Al Ittihad (Unity) and one
in
English, Emirates News, at a government-owned
press. The
Dubayy government publishes one Arabic daily, Al
Bayan
(The Official Report). In addition, the UAE has three
other
Arabic dailies and two English dailies.
The government-owned UAE Broadcasting Service airs
radio
programs mainly from Abu Dhabi, which also has a
television
station, and from Dubayy. Other amirates also have radio
stations, and Sharjah airs a small amount of television
time.
