Why have both SKY and BBC failed to broadcast interviews with Melzer?
Idrees Ahmad tweeted two days ago to Melzer, after his interview appeared on RT - Going Underground with Afshin Ratansi:
@im_PULSE: "So the UN rapporteur actually appeared on the Kremline's premier propaganda network - yes, the propaganda network of the state that shoots journalists in the face - to discuss Assange's "torture" ".
Melzer replies today:
@NilsMelzer: "For the record: On 31 May, I have also given similar exlusive TV interviews to both @SKYNews and @BBCWorld on Julian Assange but it seems they decided not to broadcast them."
