“The decision of the Zula administration to proceed with the renewal of project contracts for positions of responsibility as well as a legal advisor, just a month and a half before the elections, is unacceptable and is evidence of the transformation of public broadcasting into a repository of “blue children” ammunition”, they state in a joint their statement, the Head of Digital Governance SYRIZA-P.S. Marios Katsis, and the Deputy Head of Information & Communication of the official opposition, Natasa Gara.

“The Zula administration, after leaving a “legacy” to ERT with a total cost of 40 million until 2029, thus binding future administrations with its “excellent” choices, now wants to leave a “legacy” and the “blue” executives it is running to install during the pre-election period. They have discredited the information sector of ERT, cast “black” on the vital service of the short, disbanded the orchestras of great reputation, tried to turn ERT into a mechanism of censorship, propaganda and distortion, rewarded themselves with “golden” salaries and now they bring other friends and others in order to continue the party of destruction until their last day in power. ERT must once again become a journalistic organization of all citizens. With rules of transparency, journalistic ethics, at the service of the public interest and not at the service of Mr. Mitsotakis’ chosen ones. Citizens want an institutionally strong and independent ERT and not a mouthpiece of the respective authorities”, they add characteristically.
