伊朗电视禁播“三角恋”节目

伊朗国家电视台发布禁令，严禁国内电视台播放诱导“三角恋”的电视节目，禁止出现男性半裸上身的画面。同时，禁令还要求伊朗影视制作方避免拍摄婚礼、家庭聚会以及职场办公等男女同时出现的画面。有批评人士指出，此项禁令的推出意义不大，因为国内电视台一般都不会播出禁令所指的节目，唯一会出现男性半裸上身画面的节目只是摔跤和游泳比赛而已。伊朗实行严格宗教法律，影视节目都会避免出现异性亲密相处的画面。不过很多伊朗人都私自安装卫星电视接收天线收看国外的影视节目。

Iran's state television has banned programs featuring provocative love stories or shirtless men in an apparent bow to hard-line Muslim clerics complaining about such scenes in foreign movies, Iranian newspapers reported Tuesday.

Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iranian TV and movie productions have avoided scenes showing the close mixing of the genders, which is discouraged in Iran. Iranian actresses in domestic productions Also appear in Islamic dress that covers them from head to toe.

Through illegal satellite dishes, however, many Iranians are able to see foreign TV shows and movies. And some clerics also complain about programs on state TV that show men and women working together in the same offices or otherwise mingling or romantically involved, as well as makeup worn by Iranian actresses in domestic productions.

Reports by several Iranian dailies, including Tehran-e Emrouz, said the state broadcasting company banned such programming on state channels. The ban included specific mentions of "half-naked men" and provocative romantic tales such as "love triangles."

It also appealed to Iranian producers to avoid images of the sexes mixing at "wedding ceremonies, family parties, work places and celebrations."

Pouria Alemi, a satirist for the pro-reform Etemaad daily, ridiculed the decision in a column Tuesday, noting that state channels currently do not show such scenes anyway and wondering if the measure should instead be aimed at Hollywood.

The only half-naked men on Iranian TV are in wrestling and swimming competitions, he wrote.

Iranian TVs do not broadcast women's sporting events in which athletes' heads and bodies are not covered, such as swimming
