Eino S. Repo

Eino Sakari Repo (September 6, 1919, Isokyrö – December 15, 2002, Helsinki) was the president of the state-owned Finnish Broadcasting Company from 1965 to 1969[1] and head of the radio from 1969 to 1974.

When Finnish Broadcasting Company's president Einar Sundström retired in 1965, Repo became his successor as candidate of Agrarian Party.

During the Repo era left-wing student extremism was growing also in Finnish Broadcasting Company.

Many critics wrote that Finnish Broadcasting Company during Repo presidency wasn't so much radio as it was a political institute.

Repo was not elected to a second five-year term to Finnish Broadcasting Company, but he was made head of the radio.
