"For almost a decade, Eagle TV was the only independent journalistic voice in Mongolia," according to Michael Ireland of the ASSIST News Service. The Christian programmes broadcast via cable have led to over 10,000 people expressing interest in the Christian message. At the end of October 2005, the Eagle Broadcasting Company started broadcasting on terrestrial Channel 8 in Ulaanbataar, Mongolia's capital. Far more people can now receive the programmes. The Christian station sees itself as the nation's only independent news source, and naturally as a medium for many Christian programmes. "It's an exciting moment for us all," says Tom Terry, Managing Director of the Eagle Broadcasting Company, "now that 1 million people in the capital have access to our programmes." "Eagle Television is the only local TV station in Asia which can openly broadcast the Gospel," according to the report.
