Egyptian Media Until the revolution of July 1952, Egypt did not know much about the media and means of communication.

It was called the Ministry of National Guidance, then its name was changed to the Ministry of Culture and National Guidance, and then it returned again to the Ministry of National Guidance. This situation continued until 1970.
With the many changes that prevailed in the following period, the media and culture sectors were joined again until Republican Decree No. 43 of 1982 was issued, making the media an independent ministry under the name of the Ministry of State for Information. In 1986, the Ministry of Information became a full ministry, and thus the situation of the Ministry of Information was stabilized in all administrative, legal and legislative aspects. Republican Decree No. 310 of 1986 was issued defining the powers of the Ministry of Information, a decision that is still in effect until now.
