SRG with loose sponsorshipThe SRG has violated the Radio and Television Act (RTVA) by linking the names of sponsors with advertising slogans. This verdict was handed down by the criminal court in Bern. When broadcasting traffic information on Radio DRS, the sponsor's name was linked to slogans such as "Citroën Xara, one you can trust". In March, the Federal Office of Communications fined SRG CHF 2,000 for this. SRG will "most likely" appeal the ruling that has now been handed down.
TV 3 violates its license with newsBy switching from the 20-minute news programme "News um 7" to six-minute short news bulletins, TV 3 has violated its license. The Department of the Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications (DETEC) thus agreed with the opinion of OFCOM, against whose decision TV 3 had appealed. The concession obliges TV 3 to broadcast a full program with a focus on information and entertainment, writes the Uvek. TV 3 called the ruling "incomprehensible", as the short news items attract three to six times as many viewers as the previous long news items. The broadcaster is now examining how to proceed. Under discussion are an appeal of the decision to the Federal Supreme Court, the restoration of the previous situation or an application for a change of license.
