    #OTD 19 October, 1988 - Home Secretary Douglas Hurd announced restrictions on UK television and radio regarding the broadcast of voices of several Northern Irish political groups, primarily affecting Sinn Féin. The restrictions would continue in some form until 1994.pic.twitter.com/2o0ng0pVxz

        Media outlets could broadcast the words spoken by those who had been restricted, so it ended up with dubbing of voices. Here is an example of Sinn Féin's Gerry Adams being dubbed in an interview with Jon Snow.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WQXQbDpIdY …

        After the broadcast restrictions were announced, South Africa's P.W. Botha allegedly threatened the media with 'similar measures' in regards to reporting on the ANC.
