Television in the Czech Republic

Czech Republic become the first country in Central Europe to start to end all analogue broadcasts in November 2011.

[2] The process completed when the last analogue transmitters in south-east Moravia and northern Moravia-Silesia were shut down on 30 June 2012.

During the Czech TV crisis, Czech Television reporters organized an industrial dispute by staging a sit-in and occupying the news studio, and rejected attempts by Jana Bobošíková, the newly-appointed head of the news department, to fire them.

However, every-time they tried to air their news broadcasts, Jana Bobošíková and Jiří Hodač would jam the transmission either with a "technical fault" screen reading: "An unauthorized signal has entered this transmitter.

or with their own news broadcasts featuring Bobošíková and a team she had hired to "replace" the staff members she had sought to terminate.
