Now is OTV doing it's job? This is highly arguable. Whatever you opinion is, FPM lost a lot of its support and OTV had the potential to prevent this, or at least minimize the damage.
This damage was done by loyalist media and propaganda. It was not Samir Geagea doing sob7iyyet from house to house trying to convince people of his political choice. It was constant artillery and carpet bombing being directed against Michel Aoun and FPM for a consecutive four years.
That said, Future TV is not the weapon being used either. Nor was it Mtv.
It was LBC. And LBC, my friend, are some nasty sophisticated brainers that have such a smooth way to communicate and propel an idea.
They do not say it straight. They just smoothly state you the facts in a chosen order within the appropriate presentation, and let you draw your own conclusions.
This has sadly proven to be so efficient.
On the other hand, in plain arabic: OTV bi dallo ktir 3eychina. Okay they're trying their best, new programs, good design and stuff. But seriously, they're always in a state of war! It's an orange copy of al-Manar and it would never attract people.
People! Be creative, learn from them! It's not about saying lies, just use their twisted ways to communicate. Being harsh - even if you're saying the truth - never attracts voters, it just makes them run away and jump in the warm bosom of LBC.
