Senegal ruling party calls for anti-media campaign
Dakar: Senegal's ruling party wants to crack down on media critical of the government by blocking advertising revenues, checking they pay their taxes and urging supporters to cancel subscriptions to newspapers.
"We will ask the ministers to block advertising for newspapers that spend their time attacking us," Farba Senghor, propaganda chief for the ruling Democratic Party (PDS) and also minister for air transport, told state television on Sunday.
The comments come amid deteriorating relations between the media and the state.
