(Clearwisdom.net) On March 20th, 2008, Sun RTV broadcast a live, prime-time interview with Falun Gong practitioners. Mrs. Ilhan Akan, a widely known local TV personality, conducted the interview. The forty minute interview helped the audience learn about Falun Gong and the evil persecution it faces under the CCP regime.

After introducing thoroughly about what Falun Dafa was and the spreading situation of Falun Dafa all throughout the world, the practitioners steered the topic into the exposure of the CCP regime's brutal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners and the profitable crime of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners.
They said: '' while a lot of westerners are enthusiastically learning these exercises which bring them health and peace, practitioners in Communist China suffer brutal torture and death.''
Footage from False Fire and Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party were shown in the background, as were videos showing the exercises and how Falun Gong has flourished around the world. The contrast between the heart-moving scenes of the spread of Falun Gong to eighty countries, and the horrors of the persecution no doubt made a deep impression in the minds of the viewers.
After the broadcast, the TV station received many calls in support of Falun Gong, and condemning the persecution in China.
