Letter From The President: Pocketing the Media

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents,
I have heard ace comedian and radio presenter, KSM whining about the refusal of the National Communication Authority to grant him a license to operate a radio station.
According to KSM, the NCA has, in fact, taken away HIS frequency (i.e. a frequency allotted to him, but later withdrawn) and handed it over to another person. Poor KSM. I wish I could help him. He seems to need the frequency so bad and he?s threatening to take the NCA to court. I wish him all the best in his impending legal battle. I wouldn?t mind paying part of his legal fees for him, even though I feel that this ?war? with the NCA could end in a humiliating defeat for KSM ? a defeat which will make him forget the punch lines in all his jokes.
