TV station fined for not being arty enough
Public broadcasting association NPO has been fined €50,000 by the media commission for not broadcasting enough art and culture programmes.
The three public channels are supposed to ensure 12.5% of their output is arts-related. Last year, the total amount of airtime devoted to the arts was 9.5%
