In the "Swiss Awards" broadcast on Swiss television on January 12, VW cars and Omega watches were allegedly advertised improperly and the sponsors inadequately declared. As a result, OFCOM was hot on the SRG's heels (see ). Now, after examining the sponsorship contracts, OFCOM has opened supervisory proceedings against SRG. The SRG has until the end of April to respond, as reported by the Sonntagszeitung. According to Bakom spokesman Bernhard Bürki, possible sanctions could include SRG taking measures to ensure that legal violations are not repeated, or it could hand over the revenue to the federal treasury.
