Good money for bad broadcasting

Licence fees cover the costs of broadcasting state television and radio in Denmark, but according to the daily Jyllands-Posten the money is being wasted: "There was a time when television and radio were made for viewers and listeners but nowadays viewers simply contribute to legitimating programmes with an increasingly populist content. The transmitter of cultural values has become a thief of time," journalist Carsten Fischer writes. He recalls the times when Danish television was "inspiring, activating, enriching and dangerous", with good "scientific, artistic and educational programmes". But those times are gone, he writes: "Big words, a lot of propaganda, empty phrases and cold shoulders. ... DR [the main state channel] has neglected its most important task: to reaffirm the Danish language and culture. The majority of this product that costs 3.3 billion crowns to provide can be viewed on the commercial channels for free - so there is no need to pay DR for these programmes. ... DR has forfeited its right to charge license fees."
