"Chouf TV" is a Moroccan digital TV channel founded by Driss Chahtane, a former journalist and newspaper owner. In 2009, he spent time in prison and was determined to make his mark by creating a product that was not classic media. The founder says that he sees this new product as an opportunity to take advantage of the revolution that has been taking place in the press and news media.
In recent years, Chouf TV has grown in popularity and has become the undisputed number one in the state-controlled media machine. The network enjoys impunity and is backed by the security services. Recently, they published an inaccurate account of a police shooting that left one man dead and his partner injured. The channel presented the shooting as a case of legitimate self-defense and a false arrest, and the reporters were not punished for their mistake.
While the network has not yet been banned by the authorities, it has made history by making itself the first electronic television station in Saudi Arabia. The channel is so popular amongst citizens that it may even broadcast political events before they happen. While it may not be able to broadcast political events, the network has already been viewed millions of times. Hence, Chouftv is the first electronic television in the world.
In addition to its broadcasting services, Chouf TV has also gained prominence as a pro-government media. It is a key source of news for the country, which benefits from its close connection with the security services. In fact, a recent report by Chouf TV claimed that a police officer shot a civilian, but it wasn't. The TV network then published a report claiming it was a case of self-defense or false arrest, but the reporter was never punished for the mistake.
In the end, Chouf TV has become the undisputed number one in the state-owned media machine. As the first electronic television channel in Morocco, it is the first and most widely watched in the country. In fact, it has the most viewers of any media in the country. And it is the only one to talk about the security services, and this is where it stands out from the rest of the media.
In addition to being the first electronic television station in the country, it is a powerful pro-government media outlet. Its close ties to the government allow it to enjoy legal protection. Its close relationship to the security services also allows it to publish inaccurate reports, causing public panic and anger. However, the fact that ChoufTV is the number one media outlet in Egypt makes it a controversial topic.
