Struggles over the Media

More media outlets have been attacked.

Naharnet is reporting that the Armenian Sevan radio station in the Mar Elias section of Beirut has been set on fire.

The Arabiya tv news channel in Akkar, according to Naharnet, has been besieged.

At the same time, according to Lebanon Now,

Journalists and media personnel have reached the Future Channel building in Qontari after holding a march from the Bourj Al-Ghazali Tower in Tabaris in solidarity with Future media employees, who were routed out of their offices and harassed by opposition members.

In the southwest neighborhood of Tariq al-Jedideh, two people were killed and twelve were injured this morning after a funeral convoy was attacked.

Nevertheless, this portion of West Beirut is still calm. After receiving confident assurance of my safety from an AUB security guard, I took a run along the corniche, where a small number of men, women, and children were walking, running, and fishing. It's sunny and 70 degrees today.
