ĭuring the Empire's reign, the Rebels used a secret HoloNet channel to broadcast secret information about the Empire's weaknesses to other freedom fighters. Following the death of Maketh Tua, Imperial HoloNews claimed that the Spectres had assassinated the Imperial minister. Despite the capture of one of their members, Kanan Jarrus, his Jedi apprentice Ezra Bridger managed to give a pro-rebel broadcast before the tower was destroyed by Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin. In 4 BBY, a frequent stream of negative Imperial propaganda on HoloNet led the Spectres rebel cell on Lothal to hijack the Imperial Communications Center at Jalath. Later, Travyis was exposed as an Imperial agent. Rebel operatives such as Gall Trayvis circumvented this ruling by hijacking Imperial transmissions with pro-rebel propaganda. īy late 5 BBY, Imperial law decreed that the Imperial HoloNet broadcast should be played in public establishments such as Old Jho's Pit Stop all the time. Imperial newscasters such as Alton Kastle on the planet Lothal used HoloNet News to distort facts and events in the Empire's favor. The rebel sympathizer Hetto also maintained contact with rebel operatives such as Hera Syndulla using the HoloNet. The HoloNet was also a source of conspiracy theories for individuals such as Skelly. Several Imperial worlds such as Gorse had local editions of Imperial HoloNet channels such as Imperial HoloNews.
