Czech Television and Czech Radio employees began a 24-hour strike at midnight on Tuesday. They are protesting against the plan of Andrej Babiš's government to abolish license fees and finance public media from the state budget. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
According to the Veřejnoprávně initiative, the majority of employees at both institutions joined the strike with the support of trade unions. The protest had a significant impact both on and off the air. Czech Television and Czech Radio limited live broadcasting, news programming and other content. sme.sk ↗
ČT24 presenters are reading the news dressed in black and, according to available information, also from paper. Some regular programs are not being broadcast. On the radio, the usual programming of some stations has been replaced by music and reruns. The restrictions also affect current affairs and news programs. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
Employees disagree with the plan to move the financing of public media under the state budget. They fear that such a change could threaten their independence. The strike is to last the whole day, and its effects are also expected to be felt in public spaces. SITA ↗
After the protest ends, broadcasting is to return to its normal regime. Further developments will depend on negotiations on changing the financing of Czech Television and Czech Radio.
