Colombia’s new government, through the Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications (MinTic), has announced a significant restructuring of the public media system. A key component of this overhaul is the elimination of the long-standing daily news and opinion segment broadcast on radio and television from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. This “franja,” previously mandated, provided a platform for diverse voices and perspectives. The decision signifies a shift in broadcasting policy under the current administration. Details regarding the future of public media programming in this time slot remain unclear. The move raises questions about the government's approach to information dissemination and public discourse. This policy change has been reported by La Silla Vacía, a prominent Colombian news outlet.
