RIYADH – The Minister of Culture and Information Dr. Abdul Aziz Khoja said any satellite TV channel that instigates sedition among members of the Saudi society, or threatens national unity will be shut down, Al-Watan daily reported. He told the daily that the ministry would issue new regulations regarding the channels that seek to stir racism in the Saudi society. “The national unity is a red line that must not be crossed,” he said. He reiterated the ministry's outright rejection to any such channels, and urged the public to do the same. The minister decided last March to shut down a Saudi-owned TV channel after it aired a program that triggered problems among citizens in Najran.
