The Woyanne ruling junta in Ethiopia is relentlessly trying to control people’s access to independent media. Among its first targets were news web sites such EthiopianReview.com that have been blocked in Ethiopia for the past five years. Woyanne then went after VOA, DW, and ESAT.
The international community has so far been silent in the face of such blatant violation of international agreements, particularly Article 35 of the International Telecommunications Convention.
To bypass Woyanne’s blockade of Ethiopian Review, we have been sending out updates by e-mail to readers in Ethiopia. This week we took further step in trying to enable our readers in Ethiopia have access to articles published on EthiopianReview.com through Facebook.

We urge readers to inform families and friends at home to connect with Ethiopian Review in Facebook.
