Tele Ostschweiz (TVO) was able to significantly increase its viewer figures in the second half of 2008. The St. Gallen regional station's program was watched by an average of 101,200 people every day, an increase of 16% compared to the same period last year.
The figures are based on regular surveys conducted by Telecontrol. TVO Managing Director André Moesch attributes the higher viewer figures to improvements in the program, as the broadcaster, which belongs to the St. Galler Tagblatt, writes in a press release on Friday.
An appeal is pending before the Federal Administrative Court against the TVO license granted at the end of October 2008 for the next ten years. Tele Säntis initiator Günter Heuberger has challenged the license granted by the Uvek. The license is linked to fees of CHF 2.2 million per year. As soon as the concession decision is legally valid, Tele Ostschweiz intends to expand its program and create up to ten new jobs, the broadcaster continues.
