Television plays a huge part of the Holy Month of Ramadan in Egypt. Families gather around to watch tv shows. This year, there was a controversy surrounding some tv shows which do not reflect the culture of what Egypt represents.

The head of the national media authority, Ahmed El-Moslemany announced a convention which will be held in April to discuss controls over the film and tv industry, and to come up with a path forward.

CosmoGirl! folded in 2008. Teen People ended its print run two years earlier. Elle Girl shut down its U.S. edition. Seventeen reduced its print presence to a handful of special issues before going mostly digital. Rookie, the teen magazine built by a teen, shut down in 2018.
