Government of Uganda and the Media

So the Daily Monitor in Uganda is now claiming that the government was jamming their radio broadcasts and website (I can concur that the website was “unavailable” during the time claimed, as I could not access it, but had no problem getting to the government-run New Vision). It is now available, though.
Here is the article: Government Jams Radio, Website, from the Daily Monitor

But the government would never, ever dream of shutting down the media in Uganda just because they were reporting something inconvenient, now would they?
Nothing like this here?
Or how about this?
And then there was this from 2002…
