Introduction of Traditional Media in Saudi Arabia
It is generally known that Saudi Arabia has one of the strictest and most tightly-controlled environment among the Middle Eastern countries.

Criticism of the government and royal family and the questioning of religious tenets are not generally tolerated. As such, freedom of speech is still pretty much being restricted in a conservative Saudi Arabia.
