I just accessed PressTV. Top Story title is, "Civil Pro-Mousavi rally turns ugly, shots fired"
They must be strategically only allowing Ahmedinejad Supporters to access their website. Must be a super intense IT department. Even us advanced "westerners" can't filter sites from the other end. Or maybe your government is censoring it. Where do you live again?
I can't comment on SMS (just based on the fact I have no knowledge of the current SMS status in Iran) but in terms of website, I have seen multiple sites operating out of Iran including those which are negative towards Ahmedinejad. A lot of those news outlets that are reporting it must be biased. None so far have listed which website is blocked. Actually i can say that no websites out of Iran that i've tried to access have been down. I can't confirm I've accessed every website out of Iran but definitely enough to say the stuff being reported in the media is BS.

OK, I'll drop this because it's getting absurd. I just got another timeout on PressTV, but that could just be because it's busy. It's kind of moot - lots of images are getting out anyway.
You win. It was wholly unfair of me to accuse the regime of censorship. I now consider them to be paragons of press freedom.
