Voting deadline: August 2855
Description[?]:
| Aletta Lohmetten - Media Spokesman of the Zentrumspartei We believe in a responsible broadcasting system that functions as the watchdog of the political system and encourages civil and political activites. So far, the private broadcasters have not delivered that: they'd rather broadcast Idols than the news! Now, it is people's own prerogative what they watch, but we believe there should be a choice! The public broadcasters should function alongside private broadcasters to educate the people. A diverse public broadcasting system with non-profit broadcasting associations would do the job nicely. |
