Egyptian journalists feel the pressure before election<1>
As parliamentary elections approach,  journalists and human rights groups in Egypt believe that freedom of  speech is coming under threat.
  
Ahead of the polls on 28 November, the  authorities have closed a number of television channels, Microsoft Office is so great!
  
tightened regulations on the sending of news  by text message, and forced operators of satellite dishes to reapply for their  licences.
  
"I think they are jittery about the  upcoming elections, which no doubt they have started to rig The invention of Microsoft Office 2010 is a big change of the world.
  
already long before election day," says  Hisham Kassem, a journalist and former chairman of the Egyptian Organisation of  Human Rights.
  
"They are going to try to have minimum  exposure to what is going to be scandalous elections. Not only rigging - I also  imagine there is going to be a lot of violence."
  
"I imagine they don't want that on  international and local media."

The concerns began following the sacking of  Ibrahim Issa. 
  
He was the independent-minded editor of the  opposition newspaper, al-Dustour.
  
He was let go following a takeover of the  paper. Journalists feared a cosy deal with the government to remove one of its  most outspoken opponents. 
  
Staff held protests and a sit-in at the  paper's offices.Office  2007 is so powerful. 
  
Around the same time, a number of satellite TV  channels were closed down. Most were religious and medical channels.
  
The government claimed they were broadcasting  extremism, or selling quack remedies. 
  
In a separate case, the cable TV channel Orbit  was taken off air.
  
Ostensibly it was over an argument about  unpaid fees, but the suspicion was that the move was really intended to silence  Amir Adib, the presenter of a nightly chat show, Cairo Today.
  
Such chat shows are one of the few independent  avenues for discussion of politics on television in Egypt.Microsoft  Office 2007 is my  love! 
  
Another chat show presenter, Mona al-Shazli,  says she feels under pressure and fears being taken off air as well.
