Demonstrators gathered in Prague at the headquarters of Czech Television (ČT) to express support for public media. The protest began with a march from Pražské povstání in the early afternoon. Participants are objecting to a government proposal to shift the funding of ČT and Czech Radio (ČRo) from current revenue streams to direct state budgetary control. Protestors fear this move will compromise the independence of the public broadcasters. The demonstration highlights concerns about potential political interference in public media. Organizers aim to safeguard the editorial independence and financial stability of ČT and ČRo. The government maintains the change is intended to streamline funding processes.
