Radio Grischa leaves the private radio association
Radio Grischa, a private radio station in Graubünden, has withdrawn from the Association of Swiss Private Radio Stations (VSP). It made this decision because it was denied access to the board of trustees of the new Mediapulse Research Foundation.
Grisons-based private broadcaster Radio Grischa has left the Association of Swiss Private Radio Stations (VSP). Radio Grischa believes that Eastern Switzerland is not represented in the Mediapulse research foundation because it was not nominated by the VSP. Three radio stations that belong to the VSP and are recommended to the Department of the Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications (DETEC) by the association are entitled to a seat. If the Graubünden station is not recommended to DETEC for election, it has no chance of winning one of the three seats. Radio Grischa therefore sees no point in remaining a member of the VSP.
According to Persoenlich.com, the members of the VSP have given priority to the Bernese Oberland radio station BeO. It is not possible to represent the whole of Switzerland in the foundation anyway. DETEC's decisions are expected at the end of March.
