Iran's opposition fights media censorship - 17 Jun 09

Following public anger over what supporters of Mir Hossein Mousavi see as a fraudulent presidential poll in Iran, the authorities have asked websites and bloggers to remove any material that could "create tension" or they will face legal action.

However, Iranians are still managing to send footage to YouTube, despite the government's attempts to close down media communication beyond its control.
