OPPOSITION IS DEPRIVED OF AIR
[06:23 pm] 15 February, 2007
The international community criticizes the fact that
the RA TV Stations have fixed high prices for
political advertisements just on the eve of the
parliamentary elections.
A1+ initiated polling aimed at revealing the citizens’
opinion in this connection.
We suggested our readers answering the question, `Why
do the RA TV Stations charge such high prices /80
000-130 000 AMD per a minute/ for political ads?’
Over 235 people participated in our poll. Most of
them, 54 percent, assume that this step is aimed at
`depriving the Opposition of air’.
25 percent are convinced that the prices are fixed
`under pressure’, 17 percent say that the prices
`pursuit commercial goals’. Only 3% think that the TV
Stations fixed the prices `willingly’.
Today we offer our readers answering another question,
`In which format will the Opposition participate in
the upcoming parliamentary elections?’
