Answer 2

Press law of 1881 (Media Policy; Francophonie)

Explanation:

• From a colonial policy of French people, the aim was to assimilate, "civilize" and transform Africans into black French women & and men in French colonies. The press legislation of 1881 (alien Media policy; Francophonie) applied to all the French Speaking African colonies.
• While this law gave the freedom to print newspapers to French colonies, this freedom was rather small. The European French citizen had to control all publications. All publications were censored systematically, whatever appeared in print at the colonial authorities' discretion. All African reporters not following the French Colonial Administration's dictates were detained or exiled to other French cities.
• The "Broadcast Regulation" was not broadcast in other places of the continent in "the French colonies". The French government agency, "La Société de Radiophonie de la France d'Outremer" ("SORAFOM')" -the "Radio Corporation of Overseas France" , introduced radio in the French African colonies in the 1930s.
• These highly centralised colonial transmitters/broadcaster were operated from Paris. Management and development after the Second World War was under the control of "The Office de Coopération Radioquen (Corporation for Radio Cooperation")  and was responsible for colonial radio. Broadcasting was mainly directed at "European settlers" & the small  group of "French-educated African elite"
