In Iran, Media Are Controlled by the State According to the Constitution and Private Media Are not Permitted.
The Broadcaster is for spiritual and national politics leader ayatollah khamenei, that assigns its head straight.
“Ayatollah khamenei has repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with Irib’s performance in Recent Years,” Abdollah Abdi, the Founder and Director of Abdi Media, to Independent Media Company in Switzerland,Told Dw Previously, He Had Worked for Irib.
“Khamenei criticizes the Broadcaster Because the Large and Highly Staffed Organization is undle to Counter the Influence of Persian-Language Media Outside Iran with Opposition Networks, Independent Channels and Social Media,” Hey Said

“This is a Drastic Loss of Trust Compared to 2017, when 51% Still Followed the News Program,” Hey Added
Growing Alienation from Society
Irib remains in a recurring situation because of dropping seeing numbers in all locations.
Even Series and Films, which Are Primarily Produced for Traditional and Religious Sections of the Population, Are Falling from Favor.
JUST 11.5% of the populace are still captivated by thesis Irib Productions.

The Three of Them THE ACCUSED OF “Producing, Distributing and Reproducing Tapes and Data Carriers with Vulgar Content and Participating in the Production of Offensive Content”.
State News Monopoly
“For Years, Irib’s Budget Has Been Massively Increased to Promote Lifestyle, Views and Values That Are In Line With The Ideology of the Islamic Republic,” Media Consultant Abdi Said
“The state wants to impose ITS official narrative Unchallenged But Independent Foreign Media Threat This News Monopoly by Providing Alternative Information and Analysis.”
In Addition to Irib, The State So Funds News Agencies, Including the Islamic Republic of Iran News Agency (Irna), The Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA) and the Islamic Consultative Assembly News Agency (Icana). Other State Organizations in Cultural, Intelligence and Security Sectors Support the stories of the State Broadcaster.
