Boris Šťastný (Motorists): Czech Television and Radio should remain independent

According to Boris Šťastný (Motorists), Czech Television and Czech Radio must remain independent media outlets, even though their funding could come from the state instead of license fees to increase transparency. Šťastný, the chairman of the Motorists’ parliamentary group, said this on Czech Television’s program Questions of Václav Moravec. Taťána Malá, chairwoman of the ANO parliamentary group, added that the funding of both public service broadcasters would not be endangered if it were defined as a legally mandated expenditure of the state budget.
