LSM workers urge parliament to protect editorial independence
LSM reports that 218 employees signed an open letter urging MPs to remove urgency from proposed broadcasting-law amendments and support safeguards for editorial independence. A co-author also addressed the parliamentary committee. Signatories argue that protecting historical radio and television brands should not give politicians control over internal editorial decisions. LSM is reporting on its own staff’s appeal.
