The Hizbullah-backed Al-Manar channel issued a statement saying it had received a number of calls from its viewers in the North and Tripoli, who complained that Future Movement supporters had pressured cable providers to stop broadcasting Al-Manar, Speaker Nabih Berri's NBN and the Free Patriotic Movement-backed OTV.
Al-Manar said such acts violated the freedom of the press and media organizations.
