Bahrain TV station struggles as signal blocked

Setting up a new television station is a risky business at the best of times. But what do you do when your own government stops you broadcasting, preventing your message getting out and undermining any hopes of building a thriving business?

It is a problem the Bahrainis behind Lualua TV are facing, following the anti-government protests that took place in the country in March 2011. They have turned to technology to try and help them find a market.
