Title: DR TV Denmark Cuts
Post by Administrator on Sep 19^th, 2018, 8:51am

According to this article in BroadbandtvNews by Robert Briel...

Danish public broadcaster DR has announced the imminent closure of three TV channels and three radio stations, due to a 20% reduction of tis budget..

DR’s six TV channels will be reduced to three and radio channels will drop from eight to five. At the same time, around 400 positions will be axed.

The announcement follows the decision by the Danish government to abandon the radio and TV licence fee last March.
